That moment when your English Teacher sends you a tweet. I learnt so much from her, got my GCSEs and now I’m teaching it too! Don’t you just love Twitter? 😊
@__codexterous@marcusstanforth you were in my very first Y11 class and I'm still learning, especially from this guy. Thank you, Andy! Good luck, Marcus. Those classes are lucky to have you.
3 down, 1 to go. 🐝
Good luck to every student sitting English Language today!
To the English teachers who taught them to read like writers and write like readers: you've done the work. Now it's their turn.

🎁 FREE GIFT: FULL ROSENSHINE CPD PACK!
To celebrate 50 consecutive weeks of ⚗️DistillED, I’ve put together something quite cool…
Over the past year, Rosenshine’s Principles of Instruction has been one of the most requested topics from teachers and school leaders. So I’ve put together a complete, ready-to-run CPD pack to help schools explore and implement all 10 principles.
The download includes:
→ 10 CPD PowerPoints (ready for 30–45 min sessions)
→ 10 strategy checklists (practical classroom actions)
→ 10 planning templates (put principles into action )
→ Covers all 10 of Rosenshine’s Principles of Instruction
Everything you need to run ten focused CPD sessions — one for each principle.
👉 REPOST and comment ROSENSHINE and I’ll DM you the link. Cheers!
⏰ Available until Sunday 22 March!
