On being open about your sexuality as an LGBT+ teacher, @amjwhaley, 'Impact': " 'Is it worth it?' I ask myself, as I weigh up the invitation to be a role model for young people & a pioneer in my profession against my deep-rooted fear of rejection or interrogation." @CharteredColl

[Chartered College of Teaching @CharteredColl]

In this recent Impact article, @amjwhaley examines the challenges LGBT+ teachers face when navigating personal and professional identities, offering practical guidance for creating school environments where diverse identities are normalised.

Evidence-informed teaching has to be built around each teacher's personality and desire for autonomy; let's celebrate that. @WALKTHRUs_5 https://t.co/43Xt8NmED7

"We desperately need political leadership that is focused on finding solutions to the big issues... We need to move beyond educational tinkering, beyond cheap soundbites and finally tackle the big issues on behalf of children and young people."

@DanielBundred Brilliant thread 👍🏻

@VVMinkov @PepsMccrea @MBF70 @lisaj_howell @LindaHF80 @DElliottNailsea @danicquinn @joe__kirby @dylanwiliam @Doug_Lemov Thank you, looks like an interesting read 👍🏻

A really important shift. They’ve completed a worksheet and had it ticked off, but that doesn’t mean they *get* it? We have to ask ourselves, who is the ticking for?

[Mary Myatt @MaryMyatt]

So why hadn't the child learnt it?

Well, was it because the completion of the task was more important than whether they had really got it?

We can shift this

Instead of saying 'have you finished?'

We could say ' tell me what you've learnt'

Some important questions to ask ourselves 👍🏻
