Can anyone recommend a scheme for the teaching of geography in primary school? #Geography #edchat #edutwitter #primaryrocks

[Flora @FloraSCooper]

I've just had the call. I've refused entry. This is an interesting phone call.

Doing this for everyone for our school staff everywhere!

@MissMcHaffie @jeremyajorg I’ve noticed this too! There must be a link between the two.

I'm done with this lot.

Education Secretary @GillianKeegan describes teacher strikes as "unforgivable". I would describe the government's CHRONIC UNDERFUNDING of schools as unforgivable. Teachers are fighting to give kids the education they deserve. I support the #TeacherStrike!

A thread about workload:

A current job advert for a Senior Leadership position has been widely shared on Social Media this weekend. The advert outlines clear expectations about daily working hours, Saturday work and being available in the holidays. 1/7

"They are responsible for your poverty."

"We refuse to be poor. We are going to win for our people on our terms."

This is what change looks like #SaveOurSchools

[Jeremy Corbyn @jeremycorbyn]

Today I was privileged to join hundreds of thousands of workers who sacrificed their pay so that others may live in a fairer society.

This is what spreading love and humanity achieves.

Heads who have kept your classes of striking teachers open, next time please reconsider so that our strike has the most impact.

[Mads Matt-Wills 🌻 @madsmw94]

I keep seeing people say "I can't afford to strike" - the implication being that the only teachers striking are those who can afford lost wages.

I'm on M2. I'm the main breadwinner for my family. I really can't afford to strike - but long term, I can't afford NOT to. #payup

[Louise @louise_moira_25]

Today’s strike isn’t just about a pay rise

It’s about funding schools properly so your child can have pencils, glue sticks & resources without teachers spending their own money

It’s about ensuring schools can employ enough staff to support children adequately

💥TEACHER STRIKES: @NEUnion boss Kevin Courtney says the union has gained 32,000 members since last Monday when the union announced its strike dates & these are mostly new teacher members. This figure means far more teachers could be walking out next Wednesday than anticipated

[Miss C @MissC_1717]

#teacherstrikes 1/n I respect anybody’s opinion over striking. I really do. But I’m seeing an increasing number of colleagues judging others over their decision to strike. Personally,I voted yes to strike(my union isn’t striking💔)to try to help fix the system that is breaking…

[miss w @MissWMiss]

@physics_jamie @louisejackson27 @NEUnion Some schools have asked teachers to tell them by a certain day/time so they can make a contingency plan & naive teachers, who don’t understand their rights, have done so. I assume thinking it would motivate others to also partake.

[miss w @MissWMiss]

@NEUnion What is the point of your members striking if schools are now allowed to cover classes using support staff & supply teachers???

[Trades Union Congress @The_TUC]

BREAKING 🚨 | The Biden administration have condemned the UK government's anti-strike laws.

US labour secretary Marty Walsh said "I would not support anything that would take away from workers".
