Why it's important for SEND & #safeguarding to work together in schools: there are often overlaps between children supported by the SENCO & the DSL. KCSIE '22 made this importance explicit for the 1st time. This article explains why the link is important.

I’ve seen 2 people tweet this wk about which 🪴 they should get for a Bio lab. These are my top tips:
Tradescantia - stomata
Geranium - starch testing, sexual repro & cuttings
Cacti - adaptations 🌵
Monstera - large SA leaves
Spider plants - asexual & sexual repro & variegation

Making Best Use of Teaching Assistants

"Evidence shows it’s not whether TAs are delivering interventions but how they are doing so. It is important to think about which intervention is being used and how it is being delivered"

During lockdown I created a bank of virtual fieldtrips to famous landmarks, museums, galleries etc.

It's a resource I'm going to give my Y7 tutees as they love to hear about the places I've been lucky enough to go to:
