I sometimes get nasty messages asking why I’m so supportive of teachers—
and it’s never from educators.
It’s from those outside the profession who have no clue what teachers actually do.
But here’s the truth:
Most teachers are kind, caring, and empathetic. They show up every day for your kids—often putting your child’s needs ahead of their own.
You may not notice it.
But your child feels it.
Don’t ever forget that.

@suttontrust@KevinLatham88 This report sadly resonates, not sure how to meet need of our pupils next year within the given budget (55% pupil premium, 30% SEND) 😔. It’s also difficult when every other service says they are full to capacity and expect the school to provide the support they can’t.
