Having been a EYT for 6 years, it’s time to gain that elusive QTS. I’m leaving my EYFS comfort zone venturing into the National Curriculum. I’m going down the AO route fully supported by my school. Any advice/tips? Anyone finished this route? #traineeteacher #qts #edutwitter #eyt

@Sue_Cowley My children have settled really well, and they are enjoying being back.

@MrsCarlisle_EYP A rice cake, boring and unfulfilling!

Look forward to sharing a few of these lovely poems with my class. I’m practicing my “performance”on my own children tonight for their bedtime story #poetry #poemstoperform #BedtimeStories #readingforpleasure #literacy

First day of welcoming Reception back into school. We all made it through the day together. Looking forward to doing it all again tomorrow.#backtoschool #reception #EYFS #isitbedtime #EYtalking

Our problems as a society will not be solved by teachers just working harder.

Trust me. They are more than working hard.

It's time for society to truly support and fund schools and mental health services.

Love autumn! My favourite term by far. I found this tree outdoors and now I’m using as a feature for a display. I will be foraging for natural items to complete it soon. #BackToSchool #autumn #newterm #workinprogress #newdisplay #autumnal #eyfs #reception

*NEW* The Department for Education has published new guidance for early years providers outlining what to do if a child at a setting or provision displays symptoms of Covid-19: https://t.co/bxZZrclYYI

Shout out to the teaching assistants and support staff in schools! 🧡

Ministers patting themselves on the back for getting schools to re-open fully is wholly unearned, argues @wstewarttes: it's school staff and heads who have done all the work (free for subscribers)

Sunday afternoon spent getting organised before school starts for a brand new year. #BackToSchool #newplanner

I’ve had a ridiculous amount of time away from Twitter. However after surviving one of the most turbulent times in education, I’ve decided to come back to help try and make sense of it all! #readytoshare #EYFS #edutwitter #BackToSchool

Are you even a parent at a theme park unless you wear converse shoes, superdry hoodies and carrying a coffee cup? #halftermfun #themepark #lifewithkids

Loving the coverage of the Montessori Garden at the Chelsea Flower Show. The edible wall is an inspiration to develop a better herb garden for my children to explore. #earlyyears #ChelseaFlowerShow2019 #Montessorigarden #herbgarden

Love this!

A class discussion about whales quickly turned to climate change and how we can work together to save our planet. I’m so proud of these reception children passionate about making a difference #eyfs #climatechange #futuregeneration #proudteacher #SavetheWorld

Asking my class ‘can you tell me something about subtraction?’ Hand goes up, ‘it sends you to sleep’ #EYFS #mademelaugh #mathschat #sums #tellithowitis #eyfsnumber
