🧵One of the cornerstones of being a deeply informed primary educator is understanding multiple areas of research and how they relate to practice - child development, cognitive science, specific pedagogical approaches to name a few.
It's been a long and difficult term for many.
In these last few days at school, look after yourself and each other.
Pace yourself, if you're faltering.
Bite your tongue, if you need to.
Shut out the noise, if you can.
Look for joy every day.
Know that you make a difference.

Kind leaders build trust
Choose the harder path.
Be kind.

🧵If you ever hear me speak you’ll know I’m a fan of knowledge rich but also a fan of childhood rich. If we have chn who leave ks1 not knowing traditional stories, games,rhymes & having taken part in rich opportunities to play, explore & develop, is this not just another deficit?
On High Expectations. A 🧵
Lots of strict/ low tolerance schools talk about expectations.
Often, the implication - or outright accusation - of Trauma Informed/ Restorative Practice is that there are no routines and low expectations. 1/
