Past me: what if I don’t have enough data that’s codable present me: yep no that definitely didn’t happen (See meme for my current state of being) #edpsychs

So lovely to have such an great group of TEPs AEPs and aspiring EPs attending our @tepicc1.bsky.social session today at the @edpsy.bsky.social festival. I've left with a very full cup and feeling privileged to have co-facilitated the session with such a reflective and hopeful group #edpsych

Searching for participants! If you could please share with your schools I’d be very grateful!

We’re presenting at the Edpsy festival next week facilitating a reflective session using the tree of life franework. We hope to support current and aspiring TEPs to think about personal and professional identity and how we can support collective action within the profession. #edpsychs

Is there a better feeling than a teenager who doesn’t easily talk to new adults trusting you with their story and telling you they wished you were coming back because you were kind and actually listened to them 🥰 Gotta hold on to these moments in the sea of reports and imposter syndrome #edpsychs

Feeling #grateful for some time to reflect on how to integrate gratitude into my work more (whilst doing a bit of catch up crochet of course!) with @positivitea-eps.bsky.social and @viola-jane.bsky.social ❤️#Positivitea

Wondering if any #twittereps have done any recommended reading or cpd about solution focussed ways of working? I’m currently reading ‘Solutions in Schools’ but interested what else is out there people have found useful!

Had one of those ‘this is why I’m doing this work’ kind of days today co-delivering a virtual school training to an amazing group of staff. The room was brimming with psychology and we even got to unpick motivation and engagement frameworks (my fav!) ❤️ #edpsychs

Just seen this shared on linked in. So many useful resources in one place from @spectrumgaming.bsky.social ! #edpsychs. padlet.com/spectrumgami...

Volunteering for a bereavement charity once a week is a nice weekly reset and reminder of why I do my job. Made a mother quite emotional explaining this theory earlier. Always resonates with me #edpsychs

Online session for aspiring EPs next week. Bring all your questions 😊 #edpsychs
