If only the problem was attendance. If only the real issue was just that children aren’t at school, and so they can’t learn. For then the solution would be so simple. (illustration @_MissingTheMark) 1/

(1/5) This was one of our top posts from the month of June, and one of my favorites!! Another area of shift for me is ensuring that I have fair self-regulation expectations!!! Bringing back this post to remind us how interoception provides that bridge between self-regulation...

Arguably most significant +concerning figure in PISA coverage is in 2nd-last par here: UK now "has 2nd-lowest average life satisfaction of 15-year-olds across OECD". Ed policymakers haven't prioritised children's mental health. Need to reflect on this. https://t.co/WQ9SZhgnqn

Pointing Out A Problem. I was listening to a podcast about something unrelated to parenting, or school, or autism. The guest was talking about his experiences leaving a religion with abusive leaders. He raised the alarm as a teenager, thinking that others would act.1/

Attendance from Two Sides

During 12 years of headship, in two different schools, managing pupils' attendance was always a priority.

Improving attendance was often on our school development plans.

In our school prospectus, I said things like "Every day is unmissable!".

NEW: City Hall will be funding free school meals for every primary school pupil in London.

It’s a common feature of the primary school classroom. The behaviour chart on the wall, with children’s names on pegs. Children are moved from the sun to the clouds, or from green to red if their behaviour isn’t what is required by their teacher. 1/
