This is fabulous.Studied it at uni in Children’s Lit course (Primary Ed). Love the idea of the radio serial. Great way to start the start the hols - will have to draw the curtains and turn up/down the air con for winter effect here in Sydney,! @RobGMacfarlane #TheDarkisRising
Let’s clarify for non teachers.
We have a syllabus, school teams create a scope and sequence, then unit programs , then teachers create lesson plans tailored, flexible and adjusted for the individuals in their classes.
It won’t change. https://t.co/xGaUKdspjN
Aw shucks! From K-12 we all contributed to their academic and personal growth - thanks to all the teachers from across the world who were part of their journey.
All the best to year 12 students at Evans high school @tasriffic - they were my first yr 6 class when I was appointed to wrps. Good luck guys - make yourself and your families proud

Paul Keating gets to the heart of QEII’s reign like only he can. “In the 20th century, the self became privatised, while the public realm, the realm of the public good, was broadly neglected. Queen Elizabeth understood this and instinctively attached herself to the public good…”
How fabulous it was to spend time focussing on being learning leaders with great presenters who stimulated powerful conversations amongst colleagues. Much food for thought and future practice. @kember_toni@jodiannwarner1 @DebSummerhayes
This is the staggering reality for our rural and remote Principal colleagues. The things that we take for granted in the city can be monumental challenges on top of everything else. #MoreThanThanks
I just wonder WHY?
Why my time is worth nothing, why a job that should be done by someone else, and because of my location I cant find someone to do it I must do the work. 40hrs this fortnight
Keep in mind that cleaning contractors come 237km each way each day to do my school.
New research from @nicolemockler (@Sydney_Uni) examines newspaper reporting of teachers and finds consistent evidence of “teacher bashing”.
