If you want to live dangerously, laminate without using the cardboard pouch.

You’ll never feel more alive.

@bee_online_uk The framework hasn’t been published yet so how will you know it better than anyone else at this stage?

@Miss_Snuffy It is also a method of encouraging higher attendance for all children as attending school is so important. Sadly poor attendance impacts many children, not just disadvantaged. I hope this has the impact on attendance as the more they attend, the better for all.

@Headteacherchat Promote belonging.Shared values & vision makes everyone feel a part of that team.They need to feel their importance to enjoy work & want to play a part in it.If staff work too much in isolation or a shared vision is only with a view, it breaks down. Work on a big change together

@dave_mcpartlin I understand that. I just feel it makes people focus on the ‘crime scene’ rather than look at the horizon. Big metaphor for this time of the morning 😂 😂

@SwailesRuth What about the risk of choking? Above anything else? Surely these risks out way everything else. I would be really worried if my child attended these settings

[Coffee Based Headteacher @covidhead]

@SwailesRuth I think you proved your own point as to why as you have posted what you have been given and slated it 🤷🏻‍♀️

@Gaiinz I love Bombay mix, love love love 😋

@mrsswiftteach @MrsHJT_ Thank you. It was more about the comment of not referring to writing as GDS other than year 2 and 6. Does it mean that you both don’t agree children should be labelled as this?

[Coffee Based Headteacher @covidhead]

@mrsswiftteach @MrsHJT_ What’s the difference between ‘more able’ and GDS? What is wrong about having pupils who write better than the national average? Very keen to know this

The Titanic submarine is a modern morality tale of what happens when you have too much money, and the grotesque inequality of sympathy, attention and aid for those without it.

Migrants are “meant” to die at sea; billionaires aren’t.

@debrakidd @HereToLearnED @Ofstednews I did phonic assessments yesterday, it is clear the children are not getting familiar enough with the same words for sight reading.This prevents them from being able to learn new sounds or more complex words.The trick is to supplement with lovely books around the phonics books

@debrakidd @HereToLearnED @Ofstednews I can see the points in all of these comments. However, children need to be able to read to the point of automaticity. Fluency is a massive thing for children to keep up. If they keep needing to decode, they cannot progress quick enough for automaticity.
