Hi everyone, are any teachers out there feeling that when you reach your mid 40’s- There is a bit of ageism going on when your applying for jobs? I’ve got 24 years teaching experience and now feel like I’m not being considered in job applications because I’m too old? #edutwitter

@PepsMccrea @thosethatcan And if you know that someone in the room doesn’t like your subject, I then remind them about how useful it is….

[Gill Martin @gillcoles]

@PepsMccrea @thosethatcan Usually to take the mic out of myself for doing something wrong. By being loud about my mistakes- it makes the kids laugh and then they don’t feel to bad about sharing their errors

@ScottPughsley Hey Scott can you recommend any books/ 1 page summaries which are good to use for wider reading for SEND or Teaching Assistants. It’s for NPQSL…many thanks 🙏

[Gill Martin @gillcoles]

@lcgeography @DoctorPreece @mildthing99 @Digimap4Schools Thanks Alister. How good is Arc in your opinion - for international school? I found using GIS with Digimap etc good to use when I was in the UK. But this year - I’m abroad and Im not confident the quality of resources will be good

[Gill Martin @gillcoles]

@DoctorPreece @lcgeography @mildthing99 @Digimap4Schools I have used Digimap before. I am working in a international school now so didn’t think I could use Digimap with it being UK based

[Gill Martin @gillcoles]

@jenturnerhist Loved this book

[Gill Martin @gillcoles]

@missageography Don’t do it! Nightmare to organise and for the kids to bring to school.

Just invest in glue

Or put mocks in a cardboard wallet folder . Which I use for my mock papers
