UK Ofsted are still planning inspections as usual (although, hopefully this will change) in the light of Coronavirus pandemic. However, from March 16th inspectors have been asked to take account of how leaders are managing the outbreak including attendance issues. #coronavirusuk

As UK Gov move towards 'delay' phase, likelihood of widescale school closure is just a matter of time. Make sure your staff have adequately prepared resources including where possible web based content in event of potential 5-6 weeks closure for home ed. #COVIDー19 #coronavirus

Are you the kind of principal/headteacher who joins in with gusto and dresses up? Or are you slightly more cautious and have a suit hanging on the back of the door just in case? Maybe you think it’s better to keep it formal & leave dressing up to the students? #WorldBookDay

As leaders, are we ensuring that our educational environments promote self-esteem and positive body image? Take a walk around today and check for evidence that you and your staff are displaying positive messages and images to develop students confidence #selfesteem

@mskirstencollin @jondcarroll @tes @gemma_e_corby https://t.co/PxksXwwCgo are you ready for your deep dive? 😂

@tes @teachgratitude1 In My experience the schools that use the process to fully support performance management do do this. It is disappointing to hear of schools that still use The lesson observation process as some kind of stick.

#CHRISTMAS. This week we need to make sure we take the time to check on colleagues. Christmas can be a wonderful time of joy but also, for many, stress, pressure and loneliness. How we look after staff this week can help not only their Xmas but the year ahead too.......
