An insightful and reflective session by @New_Old_Paul at @researchED1 about what makes an educator an expert teacher. Thought provoking and inspiring. #rED2026

[Mr Simpson @MrRHSimpson]

A fantastic first session @researchED1 with @MrsBallAP exploring the professional learning mechanisms that actually work for teachers. PL is a cycle not an event!

I’ve returned to X with a bang after a short break (of 7 years!!) so I can connect with folk and share ideas at the @researchED1 national conference in London. Looking forward to spending the day with @michellemackay1 and being inspired with some big ideas in education. #rED2026

What a great way to start the day @George_Heriots with our Professional Learning Breakfast Club. Pedagogical reflections and insights on practice along with a bacon roll and a cuppa! #professionallearning @EdScotPLL @SCIScpd @gtcs

[Mr Simpson @MrRHSimpson]

Looking forward to exploring the new @gtcs guidelines and resources to further enhance the PRD process and to improve professional learning whilst keeping learners at the centre of our professional actions. #professionallearning
