@Smartek2050@winexviv Thousands might be hyperbolic but a country like ours with the population of average 11 African countries, work out what pctage thousands is in Nigeria and that will be almost the equivalent of the talented and gifted for children his age in some climes with the focus on edu.

Thinking of those whose only focus right now is GCSE results day. Their performance management relies on it, their freedom from insane and damaging scrutiny relies on it, their mood in September and beyond relies on it. Wrong.
@RogersHistory@Greeni1488 “The argument running counter to this usually centres on individual cases of schools - some in deprived areas - that achieve outstanding results.” This part of your write up hit home for me and l was glad when l read further you mentioned the cultural and social influence .👏🏾👏🏾
@Ordinaryteache1@Headteacherchat You echoed my thoughts! The first are me everyday - so overstimulated my evenings can feel less restful and night time chaotic !
@Obasogie83 I can listen to Kenneth all day ! He is apt in his expression and articulate his thoughts so well for his target audience. These are the best of us who are denied a place at the oak table. Just started following him which l should have done a long time ago.

Let me tell the story of a wonderful Nigerian I met on my trip back home from Houston two days ago.
Collins Ikenna Egwu of Delta Airlines Atlanta.
On sighting me, he walked up to chat before the boarding of our flight to Lagos.
He was not at work but traveling home to be with his Mom for a few days.
Collins, a very kind soul who on hearing of the seating problem that made me leave the lounge earlier than usual to the boarding gate; quickly took it up and boom, solved!
Here’s the beautiful part of this story.
Two hours into arriving Lagos, the lovely Chief Flight Attendant tapped me and with a broad smile said:
“Our colleague, Collins has told us so much about you and now we need you to help us surprise him. He does not know we are aware that today is his birthday. We have planned a surprise for him and would like you to join us deliver it. Can you oblige us this request, Ma’am?”
I said: Sign me on immediately!😁
Here are the lovely birthday pictures of a wonderful compatriot - Collins - whose Delta colleagues excitedly celebrated for the many good things he’s been to them.
Money cannot buy a beautiful moment of Life for Collins like what happened on that Delta Flight.

@norchcity @Strickomaster You echoed what l am about to write as l scroll through the comments . I don’t want an increment if school are funding it: increase workloads covering shortage off staff and colleagues jobs at risk.
THREAD: I'm obsessing at the moment about all the signs that my students are not paying attention. Here are the ones I've come up with, alongside some solutions.
Very proud of the students and English team @DixonsTC as our students achieved a P8 in English of +1.28. A few things that we think made a difference for our students, as well as a call for simplicity:
