For teachers without kids of their own: Home learning/working in our house. 2 adults & 2 children, Mum & Dad both on video calls to school, both kids on live video lessons. We ALL need: 1. a device, 2. decent internet connection, 3. our own space, 4. to have to work independently
The pressures on heads and trust leaders to juggle online learning expectations and growing numbers of key worker children in schools: @SteveChalke and me talking on @BBCBreakfast this morning (includes obligatory mid-sentence screen freeze!) https://t.co/rj8mxbNk40
As Gavin Williamson suggested earlier, I'm hereby contacting Ofsted to let them know about my daughters' schools.
They need to be aware of how hard every single member of staff is working, @Ofstednews@McAuleySch and they have been doing so since last March and still improving.
I am offering lots of free virtual and in-class materials for Holocaust Memorial Day (27 January) created with partners including @UCL_Holocaust@Literacy_Trust@HMD_UK@HolocaustLake. Full details here: https://t.co/I06peqOwU1
We love supporting children in their home learning, so we're once again offering 30 days free access for new logins to our parent portal. This website is packed with Dave's Number Fun song videos plus a host of creative games and activities. Have fun! https://t.co/6L4AWX8fVG
Morning @Ofstednews@GavinWilliamson I must report Brighton Ave Primary School Gateshead to you. For their fantastic rich online learning provision and future planning, plus available printed packs, for all year groups. I’m chair of governors. I’m proud. I’m impressed.
Parents and carers, has your school done a good job in keeping your children safe and maintaining some sort of contact and education?
Why not write the head a letter - it would mean the world. Also, if you have five minutes, why not let Ofsted know too. https://t.co/H81Xvgl2y5
❓Online Quizzes❓Hi everyone. We’re working on making our knowledge organiser mini-quizzes available online for remote learning. We’re teaming up with @QuizShed but would like to know what topics you need to us prioritise for you! @KarlDuke8 @KatyDixey@cdibble@deputygrocott
At latest count local sch will have 60% of children still in. And pretty much all of nursery. And the gov are demanding 3-4 hours learning for those at home too.
And asking parents to report to Ofsted
They are deliberately pushing til they break schools imho.
I am really cross.
@BorisJohnson Pass this on, would you. Immediately looking for the negative rather than celebrating everything amazing thats happening in schools across the country. Disgusting.
A MESSAGE FOR ALL TEACHERS AND SCHOOL STAFF!
Just a little thank you from the Mr Ps for the incredible hard work this year! If you know a teacher/TA/LSA/support staff, tag them in so they can see they’re appreciated!
If you want to join us to celebrate… https://t.co/3lFRy0qFsS
No regrets, having a great time in my classroom. Big up @janeconsidine#thewritestuff for allowing me to turn these moments into incredible writing. Let it goooo (into pathetic fallacy in a battle speech...) @FayeHirst 😂 ❄️
