Labour had the opportunity to make some changes to ease the pressure on educators and children but instead they decided to ramp things up with targets because they're more interested in looking 'tough' than actually supporting us. Imho. 🤷‍♀️

In light of all Chump's angry attacks upon democrats and states in the Divided States of America, wouldn't the UK be the bigger country if all political parties showed some unity? Bashing and attacking each other is no different to the Tangoed Chump.

The national year of reading - is this new?

Of course there will be more people applying for ITT in certain subjects because of the money. Then they will find out how bloody hard it is.

This problem with every government when reviewing a curriculum is that they go straight for the almighty OAK and forget about the acorns which is where the foundations start.

This government professes to have more MPs from comprehensive education backgrounds and yet they focus on the trusts for the expertise. Greatly disappointed. What a disappointment.

Oak - highest quality? How do they know????????

Isn't play-based learning still about learning to read and write???????? Why separate them!!!!!????

MOT done with £1 for a replacement bulb. Relief. My car is 2013 with 57,000 on the clock. I have driven less than 1000 miles since it was last tested. I use my car to get Mum out and about as well as to hospital appointments. Walk and bus the rest of the time.

Trump is incredibly unpopular here! including amongst Tory voters. What are they doing?

As an adult now, when you were at school, did you learn better because you were offered a reward, house point, extra playtime or simply because you wanted to learn? What motivated you to take charge of your learning?

Riot Women. Happy Valley. Strictly. Sherlock. Line of Duty. Peaky Blinders. Traitors. Race Across the World. Planet Earth. Match of the Day…Are we really going to let the right wing culture wars coup at the BBC news department bring down the whole thing? It’s exactly what they want.

Tuesday Shoesday.

This is me just responding to the news that #Drama has found a way back into curriculum. For some of us it never left. After making this I went and taught Y2 (Christopher Columbus) +Y5 (The Space Race and Propaganda). Both sessions wrapped in story, Drama, + #Botheredness. @mrjamesob.bsky.social

My interim distraction between marking scripts has been to write my Christmas cards for my church folk.

Convincing your headteacher that primary language are important www.all-languages.org.uk/features/con... From 2017 but still relevant! #allplconf @all4languages.bsky.social

Mine is next week. Booked it 2 weeks ago.

My birthday treat of going to the theatre this afternoon to see Puccini's La Boheme is not happening as I am still too unwell to go. I would not want to sit next to someone coughing all the way through it. Suppressing a cough just makes it worse.

I taught through all of these reforms. I was there when the first ever Y2 SATs took place with all the floating and sinking malarky. I have seen every assessment system be introduced and the OFSOD framework change repeatedly. Nothing really changes at all. Just a new wrapper.

In the summer I shared the fact a lovely neighbour had tenants do a runner and leave the property in a bad state of repair. The debt they owe in rent is unbelievable as well as not paying for utilities. Goodness knows what else they owe. 1/3

@mrsnicki.bsky.social Happy birthday. X

Remembering Tim Rylands on this day. He had me believe holding Mr Walker, his stick and waving it in the air moved the cursor on the screen. Turned out it was in his pocket after all.
