It was great to have @DrHarknessChem from @PeeblesHigh on campus today to talk to our departing #EdNapierPGDE students. Some great book suggestions to help 'keep their axe sharp'

Thanks to everyone who has been in touch with such positive comments about the poster @MrGoodwin23 and I have produced to support teachers and leaders develop teaching and learning in schools. It’s great to know so many people are finding it so useful 😊

Good to see the quality of the Scottish curriculum being debated on @bbcquestiontime last night.

However, disappointing that a ‘knowledge-based curriculum’ was being conflated with a ‘teach-to-the-test curriculum’.

[STA_SeniorPhase @seniorphase]

@Bruce_NextLevel @JohnCattEd @ImpactWales Done! Thanks
