Just a teacher, always willing to learn. HOD English.

@HalifaxBank not loving how I can’t report fraudulent action as your chat bot doesn’t answer and been on hold for nearly two hours, then tried again and on hold again another hour. How do you not have enough staff to answer?

@TeacherBusy I used to set it on Microsoft forms with multiple choice recall
Worked well

@Positive_Y_Mind ‘You’ll never get a grade 1 lesson observation with that group- look at them’
Then I stopped worrying about Ofsted

@PeterSweden7 Traumatic births, poor care, lack of access to doctors when children are small, both parents needing to work, still women suffer career wise, terrible Mat may, lack of childcare facilities, lack of care when women struggle to conceive. I could go on easily…

@Ria1984 So true!

@TeacherBusy Been HOD 16 years, it gets easier but I still struggle the night before still. It’s important to draw positives as every year negatives can overwhelm you when you get the results. Have a plan for the day you stick to

Two sets of parents won’t sleep tonight. Their babies have been murdered! The media don’t want to use that word but I will. Because it’s true.

They were murdered in a holiday club. Dancing to music they loved, giggling and singing, whilst their parents worked. And then they never came home again.

Hopes, dreams and lives shattered in the blink of an eye. Families destroyed forever.

My heart aches for them and for this country. Because we are no longer a place of safety, we can’t rely on our society to be decent. We are not that place anymore.

Successive governments are to blame for that. Their first duty is to keep us safe. They have failed on every measure.

And today, to the heartbreak of their families who loved them, a community and a nation … two little baby girls are dead.

The sanctimonious‘grief’ of the media will start in earnest tomorrow, to assure us it’s an isolated incident, by a Welsh teenager who has mental health problems.

Get lost. No it wasn’t. We see you and we are done 💔

My experience of teaching in the last twenty or so years... I might have missed some so feel free to add...

@HoDandHeart @GCSE_Macbeth This! Mine is 7.5, like dealing with a teenager already

@clairevh Told I was aggressive anytime I challenged him (I wasn’t, he saw any disagreement as aggressive). Told to not sit there as it’s the ‘pregnancy’ chair. Told not to speak in ML meetings. Good- dynamic female VP who empowered me through coaching- every meeting

@clhubes Mine is 7 and this is still a daily fight 😂

[Lemara @lray1982]

@warwickmansell Putting aside the issue raised, schools are not required to put on a prom. It is done purely on goodwill. It’s important to remember this

[Lemara @lray1982]

@shadylady222 This is so true

[Lemara @lray1982]

@TeacherBusy This made me laugh. So true!
