Always back the teacher in front of your child. That's my advice to parents. You can take it or leave it. Up to you.

I love the curriculum work that’s been done at @TurtonSchool Layers of depth underpin this beautiful map of connections. It took several years.

[Clare Buffham @BuffhamClare]

@GBrady_ Definitely! Lovely idea, I’ll text you this week :)

[Clare Buffham @BuffhamClare]

@GBrady_ I totally forgot you were off last week, was going to see if you wanted to do something this week! 🙈

@andreletheren @AJTF71 @MrsSingleton @OliHandley @ScienceLP @Shambles70 As an alternative to flame tests (no Bunsen at the scout hut I presume!), you can soak large sugar cubes in the solutions and set fire to them; the flames are all different colours :)

Just received this ‘Bluecoat Banta Card’ to brighten my day 😄 not only did the students succeed in making me smile, they actually found a semi-decent science joke and one I hadn’t heard before!! @Meres_Academy @
