@MsGHist I’d love to hear all, as Curriculum lead for English.

@OhLottie Typical tone deaf response from politicians regarding anything in education.

@SchoolsWeek Experience tells us that teachers’ views are irrelevant as far as OFSTED is concerned. They’ll ask for feedback, release the findings…then crack on anyway! This framework is already out there and schools are using it. Teachers’ voices are not the voices that count.

The fact we can't tell if teacher salaries are meeting minimum wage laws shows we have deep problems with the structure of teacher pay and conditions.
The 1265hr deal was a response in the mid 90s to changing employment laws. It needs an overhaul.

5 years ago today the schools closed. We went home not knowing when they would fully open again.

The way schools managed that period of distress and uncertainty was incredible and i don't think education has ever truly received the credit it deserves for that action.

[LLoring @loringesque]

@Ofstednews What’s the point of consulting if you ignore the feedback and just regurgitate the same system using different words? Just Ofsted paying lip service…again.

[LLoring @loringesque]

@RealGeoffBarton It’s rare (these days) to find people who care as much as you do about educating our young people whilst also looking after our teachers. This is well-deserved. Congratulations @RealGeoffBarton

@Strickomaster Sadly, like the current situation with ITT students, it’s a case of ‘bums on seats’ and any ‘bum’ will do!

@JonHead19 @NEUnion Yep, that would really help to solve the recruitment crisis! 🙄🤦‍♀️

@Englishomestead I’m struggling with this; I’m allergic to dogs, as is my dad. If we fancy a pub lunch out now, I have to ring round and find out if they allow dogs. Invariably, they do and our choices are https://t.co/ltrN5knEh0. Some say ‘only in certain areas’ as if allergens aren’t airborne!
