@EngLangBlog It’s so kind of the Mail to keep providing such excellent A Level source material for Paper 2!

@Willmotts1856 we have been waiting weeks for our building’s front door to be fixed! It is a serious safety hazard: at times we are trapped inside the building; at others we cannot close the front door at all!

@DanSeanClayton Brilliant 😂

A little thread by me on PEE, PEETAL & other formulae, in response to requests for evidence & some scepticism about whether such evidence exists. It does! Elsewhere in the thread I quote the Examiners' Reports at GCSE & AL too.

@williamskl2 @Read_Learn_Lead Yes please, would love to see that. Thank you.

@WomenEdLondon good morning! Coaching enquiry: I’m keen to learn more about coaching in a school context & would love to experience what it’s like to be coached myself. Do you know anyone with coaching experience who might be happy to help? Many thanks 🙏🏻

@msybibi good morning! Coaching enquiry: I’m keen to learn more about coaching in a school context & would love to experience what it’s like to be coached myself - I suspect I’d benefit enormously from it! Do you know anyone with coaching experience who might be happy to help?🙏🏻

@GrowHackney hi I wondered if a large raincoat was found at your venue yesterday? I was there in the afternoon. It’s yellow blue and grey and the brand is GoSoaky. It was taken from my bag. Pls get in touch if so. Thanks

@EngLangBlog Perhaps the BBC have been directed by AQA to provide the ‘new material’ we were promised for the ALevel English Language exams? Question 3 source sorted! 🤔

[Alison Cotton @tsubakithecat]

@EngLangBlog @mssfax Yep, I can vouch for that!

[Alison Cotton @tsubakithecat]

@BarbaraBleiman This is wonderful! And so sad...

@virginmedia I need to book an engineer but there is no way to do this via the website& no one is answering the phone or online chat! Was wrongly informed I could do QuickStart from my flat. Please contact me ASAP. Thanks

[Alison Cotton @tsubakithecat]

@virginmedia I’m a new customer - how can I book an engineer to install broadband? Thought I’d be able to do it myself but I was wrong...

[Alison Cotton @tsubakithecat]

@TalkTalk Please can you resolve my loss of WiFi? I should not have to pay for an engineer to fix your fault!

[Alison Cotton @tsubakithecat]

@TalkTalk shocking customer service call - which I’m charged for. Zero WiFi since yesterday& now l told I have to pay for an engineer to fix their fault??!

[Alison Cotton @tsubakithecat]

@Andr6wMale We’ve had an albino 🐿 in our garden! (South Norwood). P’raps it’s the same fella?!

@EngLangBlog Feel free to DM - I’m really enjoying that aspect of it with my current students (different type of School to previous) so is really interesting to hear their very different ideas and reactions to my last school. I’m actually leading whole school inset on wed around linguicism...

[Alison Cotton @tsubakithecat]

@RobDrummond Perfect timing - I’m just about to deliver school Inset on Linguicism 👍🏻
