Enthusiastic Year 6 teacher and Mum! I love learning new things and sharing ideas! I’m passionate about travel and discovering new places. Working on my NPQSL.
I'm repeating my online 'Building a Classroom Reading Culture' session on Monday 11th August at 10:00am. There's no fixed price for tickets as all donations will go directly to Medical Aid for Palestinians (https://t.co/q9eqzU51As). Please share!

It’s February, a new month, which means it’s time for me to give away a class set of novels via my book shop @ANewChapterBks. Last month a class got a full set of Malamander, which hopefully strengthened their reading offer. Simply RT for a chance to win.
@MrBoothY6 Hi Ashley - I’ve followed you for a longtime due to my interest in whole class reading. I work at a school in Kent that has been awarded Opal platinum (twice) - please come and visit us. I’d feel I was giving something back - or feel free to message me.
60% of our children don’t speak English at home; some came in boats, or the boots of cars. Some have been evicted, living on food parcels.
Next week we will have statutory tests and our outcomes will be compared to the most affluent, stable and resourced schools in the country.
Our children are so creative and innovative in their play. Here are some fabulous @OPALOutdoorplay moments from the autumn term.
❤️❤️

Assault a police officer: arrested
Assault a nurse: arrested
Assault a politician: arrested
Assault a teacher: let's have a restorative conversation and see what the teacher should have done differently
"One more thing," the patient says, right when I'm about to exit the exam room.
I used to be annoyed by it. Until one day, a patient's "one more thing" was actually "the" thing she wanted to say. But she needed to feel me out and make sure I was a safe person first. So, I sat back down and listened. Then we discussed and ran tests.
"You restored my faith in doctors." She took the bus just to tell me this today after making a full recovery. Her visit filled my heart with warmth and purpose.
If we ask people to wait for months for their appointments, then (sometimes) hours in our offices, we can hear them out for their one more thing.
Absolute best practice example EVER from a school:
My #autistic nephew is starting a new school & they sent him a book with pictures of: his new classroom, school gate, entrance door, all teachers, principal & SNA.
This is inclusion & how it should be done 🙌

We’re trying to get as many followers as Rishi Sunak so we can show the government just how many people are prepared to fight for the NHS and its staff.
Please can you help by following us and retweeting this?
Heading back to #KS1 means only one thing … using the amazing advice from @ClareSealy to teach time. I’ve learnt from experience that this is much better as drip fed learning so will use this little and often throughout the year 😅🥰

I am biased, but our art curriculum is the best! The progression is so skilfully thought through. @PillingNaomi sat with me recently and helped me to better articulate how children progress within the medium of sculpture 🤯 @PKCKST
