The University of Plymouth was buzzing with visitors for our Open Day. If you did not make it to see us but are interested in studying education on our Education Studies or Primary Education degrees, I would love to hear from you! @PIoE_ITE @PlymUni

Viva day done and dusted. Passed subject to minor changes and so thankful for the support I’ve had!! @Janmgeo

[Dr Jacklyn Barry @JacksBarry]

@DrRLofthouse Had this very conversation with education studies students. Words have meaning and when we simplify, we lose nuance. There is a time and a place for simplification but academic writing serves a purpose.

[Dr Jacklyn Barry @JacksBarry]

Always one to bring a book wherever I went, for the last few years I’ve been mostly carrying the things I should read. With that pressure to finish having dissipated, my unread books are calling to me. I have a bunch stashed around but any recommendations of what to read first?

[Dr Jacklyn Barry @JacksBarry]

@Janmgeo I would have loved to hear your thoughts!! And you’re right about dusting which was not a terribly thought out metaphor because it was posted after the celebrations! I’ll have a rethink!

[Dr Sarah Steadman @steadmansj]

@tes @matilda__martin @educationgovuk Should the Amber be ‘2021-22’?

[Rachel Mears (Lofthouse) @DrRLofthouse]

What do you invest in? You can buy new CPD products or hang out with the big merchandising edubrands. Or you can invest in time for professional learning. Quick wins rarely sustain positive changes.

@viv_ellis @PassyRowena @BloomsburyAcEd Thank you for bringing together such a wonderfully apt reflection of the current teacher education context. I’m thoroughly enjoying the read, which is being accompanied by a cacophony of tuts sighs and exasperated agreement.

In the opening panel at #BERA2023 I described the role of universities in “Holding the space for professional learning”. Here are my thoughts as a new blogpost. ⁦@BERANews⁩ ⁦@CollectivED1⁩ ⁦@EducationLBU⁩ https://t.co/yjWiU4xhoX

[Dr Jacklyn Barry @JacksBarry]

So much of this resonates with me and with my research into how the use of, and training around, evidence-based interventions positions (and potentially deprofessionalises!) teachers. As an ex English teacher myself, the references to King Lear were appreciated too.

[Margaret E Atwood @MargaretAtwood]

Note that not a single “administrator” has taken a pay cut. #Universities have to teach. It’s what they are for. They are not “for” administering without any #teachers. Many have become topheavy with administrators, who just keep administering themselves more money and cutting the teaching of students.

[Ian Cushing @ian_cushing]

this was such a great symposium organised by @viv_ellis. i argued that we certainly should critique teacher education policies but more critiques should be paid to the original, root academic scholarship informing those policies and being cited in them. #BERA2023

[Rachel Mears (Lofthouse) @DrRLofthouse]

Completely forgot to tweet while @Janroweljmu was speaking on Teacher Education in Crisis at #BERA2023 but she has re-named the DfE Golden Thread as the golden pot noodle. Just poor on water.
