@PaulWat5 @MissSDoherty @son1bun @Mr_AlmondED @MrEFinch @smithsmm @DeputyGrocott @Misterbodd @HappyHead74 @kateowbridge @KyrstieStubbs I find it hard to learn all the songs in time but it’s a good way for the kids to learn a range of styles.

The day itself is a long one.

@PaulWat5 When you look at other nations who do well to support young people into further education/careers, what’s lacking here is the opportunity to easily access technical qualifications.

@MissDSays I think Y3 is the height of when you need to rebuild their learning behaviours. It takes a lot of effort but you just need to be consistent. Develop some silent signals, consistently remind them of the class rules and stick to your guns.

@LiteracyShed @RachelOrr I had a small Y6 extended writing group last year and showed them this. I’ve probably used it with every UKS2 class I’ve taught.

@MichaelRosenYes I lead Music training for trainee teachers and teach them specifically how to teach children to sing. It’s such a vital skill but one the primary teachers shy away from.
Singing in Assemblies isn’t as common (assemblies themselves aren’t) so children rarely sing.

@MissKhan__ @LoveIsland Not much because I don’t know what to are talking about really.

[Ben @bbcTeaching]

@MissKhan__ @LoveIsland I know, right?!
