@nmgilbride Congratulations Neil! An excellent appointment.

[Jen Curran @jennimc_d]

Such a good chat! Always value the chance to support schools with assessment practices.

[Shane Leaning @leaningshane]

There are people who know stuff (but confuse the hell out of me)

AND

There are people who know stuff and make it incredibly accessible.

@jennimc_d and @SinghAmarbeerG are two such wonderful people. What a privilege to catch up on the #GlobalEdLeaders today.

Watch this space!

And we’re off!

The call for evidence for the curriculum and assessment review is now open, and will be for 8 weeks.

As @BeckyFrancis7 says, this is the chance for a national conversation. Excited to hear the diverse views, insights & expertise of all.

Oh my goodness there's so much excellent stuff. If you'd like to see @DrSamSims, @BanksBriony, @stefaniemeliss and I discuss our @Ambition_Inst recomposition research and the use of simulators in education, we're on in M16 at 10.20.

[Tom Bennett OBE @tombennett71]

A better quality version for the amazing program for researchED 2024 #rED 2. Last tickets/ returns HERE https://t.co/DqcBsKtIfy One of our best line-ups yet :)

[Jen Curran @jennimc_d]

And also: @SCottinghatt, @nmgilbride, @Josh_CPD, @mikehobbiss, @Sam_LGibbs, @PepsMccrea, @profbeckyallen, @PearceMrs, @BradleyKBusch, @Nikki__Sullivan, @lamb_heart_tea, @MrsBallAP

To name but a few! This is such an incredible line up, the hardest decisions will be where to go.

[Jen Curran @jennimc_d]

Other things I think will be excellent:
@MsLNewman has made me think so much lately, she's discussing TA deployment at 2.50 in M27, and (S)END in M26 at 11.25.

[Jen Curran @jennimc_d]

Really looking forward to the excellent line up @researchED1 on Saturday. If you're thinking about how you use data in schools or what the new Ofsted report card really means, we'd love to see you in our session 'Measuring what Matters' with @SinghAmarbeerG and I.

[researchED @researchED1]

Still some tickets left for next weekend's researchED National Conference 2024 #rED24 https://t.co/8DljB9Zsqr
