Primary Headteacher - tweeting anonymously so that I can be open and honest. Love my job, but it can be tough!

[AR @llewelyn20]

I think we need to be honest and say that schools are no longer just for education. We are a social service, providing food, clothes, mental health care, housing and financial advice, money for transport and childcare.

We need a framework that reflects this reality @Ofstednews

@MrHtheteacher I'm reading The Christie Affair by Nina de Gramont.

[QuietHT @HtQuiet]

After a crazy final week of term (that included an Ofsted inspection), I'm appreciating the small things - a cup of tea and time to read while the rest of the house are still in bed. 🫖📚

[The Thinking School @Thinkingschool2]

I don't want our teachers to do something because leaders have told them to.

I want them to do what they believe is right.

I want them to question.

I want them to be thinking teachers.

@evevollans It's the only Christmas prep I've done!

@ballater6 Funded lessons for PP children. Every child gets whole class instrument tuition in Y4.

[school data updates @jpembroke]

I'm going to keep tweeting this:

The expected standard has not been raised. The pass mark has been raised to maintain the expected standard. It reflects the relative difficulty of tests compared with previous years based on sampling.

Can anyone hear me?

Or should I give up?

[QuietHT @HtQuiet]

@Michael_S_Green Great book! Hope you get some answers soon.

[QuietHT @HtQuiet]

@Headteacherchat Trust them to do a good job and remember that they are individuals.
