@EldonPrincipal @robertlargan this analogy articulates exactly how myself and many of your constituents feel. Please do the right thing. 🙏

Baby elephants typically don't learn to control their trunks until they're about a year old, which may result in behavior like this.

@SWLiteracy Every day is a school day. Thanks for your help @SWLiteracy!!!

@SWLiteracy and any other literacy bods out there….Phonics query. I’ve been told the word ‘campaign’ is a common exception word. I thought it was just that the (a) sound was, in this case spelt (aig). Daughter had spelling test which focused on the (ai) spelling. Confused thanks

[John Walker, Sounds-Write @SWLiteracy]

@cooke_bernadine Hi Bernadine, This is how I would code ‘campaign’: sounds: /k/ /a/ /m/ | /p/ /ae/ /n/; spellings: < c > < a > < m > | < p > < ai > < gn >. The /n/ is spelt < gn>, as in ‘gnome’, ‘gnash’, ‘reign’, etc. so, is it a CEW? Only if you haven’t taught the code. If you’ve taught the …

[Bernadine Cooke @cooke_bernadine]

@SWLiteracy I’ve just planted my palm firmly on my head. Of course it is!!! Thank you! The word (straight) was also in the test so once we’d decoded that <aigh> I was on the hunt for more /a/ spellings. Thanks so much for your help. 🙏

@jessphillips It has to be Liverpool surely!

@Steven_Berryman @tes Not doubting the proposals that music makes you better at maths, a better team player, a better learner etc, but most importantly music lessons make you a better musician. That's enough by itself. Music needs no other justification than music. That's why it's on the curriculum.

100% of students reaching expected literacy standards is not just something to strive for, but something that @stgeorgeprimary has shown is very much achievable four years in a row 🤩👏 Find out more in our book of case studies: https://t.co/IPwd9hP5zx
