@CrossCountryUK I’m travelling on the 09:22 Sheffield to Edinburgh service. Too many people unable to get to their reserved seats, aisles and carriages packed. Why has this train been oversold? Can I get compensation for paying £50+ and having to stand for perhaps full 4+ hours?

[Miss Tipton⭐️ @misstipton1]

@EastMidRailway It was the staff at the info/ticket office at Sheffield. Loads of us got on the 19:06 Northern train to Chesterfield as that was advised and we were told they’d hold the original London service

[Miss Tipton⭐️ @misstipton1]

@EastMidRailway absolute chaos at Chesterfield train station. After the 19:00 service from Sheffield to London was cancelled, we were advised to go to chesterfield where the original train was supposed to be held… no train to London in sight (1/2)

Don’t really post much on here but just have to express how much I LOVED spending the afternoon with my new, gorgeous Y1/2 class 🥰 now getting very excited to make the move down the corridor to KS1!

[Mr S @steviestallard]

Should be illegal to have to teach a 7-week then an 8-week half term in autumn/winter. Stupid scheduling.

Can’t be a coincidence that I’ve never felt so low and easily fucked off in my life, exhausted + generally intolerant of people/anything. Can’t even hide it anymore.

SUSPENSIONS. Quick reminder:

1. Schools with challenging intakes need more disciplinary responses than ones without
2. Suspensions are one way to help reduce exclusions
3. Schools that need to suspend, need to suspend
4. If they don’t, the environment gets much worse for children
5. Not all behaviour issues can be resolved by a kind word
6. Criticising a school for above average rates of exclusion, demonstrates a misunderstanding of what ‘averages’ means
7. Don’t shame schools you couldn’t run

This is a really bad look for the govt. Further restricting the right to strike misses the point entirely. Let me help. Why not create the working conditions and pay which means that teachers are not driven to take strike action? @GillianKeegan ?

[Claire Lotriet 🌞 #ubuntu @OhLottie]

Bold to introduce the idea of ‘minimum service levels’ in a profession that continually goes over and above.

[National Education Union @NEUnion]

.@GillianKeegan a good job?!🤔

On your Government’s watch, thousands of children are having their education disrupted at the start of a new academic year because of crumbling concrete and unsafe school buildings. The problem with RAAC has been known for years and it’s the tip of the iceberg.

It's time for you, your department and this Government to take responsibility for the crisis that’s developed on your watch and #ValueEducation

ECTs - unless it's being dictated to you (in which case try and pluck up the courage to ask for time to do it) then you don't need to have fully made or even partially made displays yet. You haven't done any work!

[Miss C @MissC_1717]

I don’t think I’ve ever seen so many tweets or videos on teachers buying so much stuff out of their own money for their classroom than I have this year! Is this it now? 😱 (Yes, yes, it’s a choice - if you have the £ - but it’s a worrying trend)

[Miss Tipton⭐️ @misstipton1]

Love this thread😊

[sara h 🇪🇺 @lifeatthenest]

🧵 Attention all new teachers. You’ll see lots of posts on here with Instaworthy classrooms, teachers buying all sorts of paraphernalia from fairy lights to bookshelves. They will have up-cycled furniture Some will say they’ve spent hours planning. Here’s 34 yrs worth of advice:

Observer today. https://t.co/bfEBk7UuBV

And in my DM inbox this morning a HT of a school inspected since the tragedy of Ruth Perry saying the lead inspector came in with an agenda, found ‘evidence’ to back it and destroyed a good school.

This HAS to stop. Toxic, Toxic, Ofsted.

Ofsted has to change. For all our sakes. https://t.co/oiSUD6CHoe
