🚨BIG day on the BLOG🚨 MY 100th POST‼️ Never thought I'd get to 10, let alone 100.😮 A new blog for #ITT #ECT #mentors #coaches on setting meaningful targets for their #mentees. Particularly helpful for #ITAP follow-up! uonhistoryteachertraining.school.blog/2025/11/03/s... #TeacherEducation

Marrakech has well and truly stolen my heart

Huge thanks to Educate for this feature on our @endsexisminschools.bsky.social History report, alongside @katemossewriter.bsky.social ‘Change is needed’. 💪🏻

Besotted with Marrakech 🇲🇦 🌞 ♥️

Trying to correct a lifetime of rushing to the airport, and I may have over corrected. I’m not sure there’s enough in Bishop’s Stortford for 18 hours 🙃

Is it even a holiday if you’re not trying to leave for the airport and the dog tries to ensure she’s packed too? Bonus points for pretending to be asleep so unable to move.

We have curated a record-breaking NINE workshops for secondary teachers, covering a huge range of topics. You won't be surprised that we have an awesome roster of presenters including @fredoxby.bsky.social @petejackson.bsky.social @missrcarter89.bsky.social @oblaize.bsky.social

Just in time for half term @1972shp.bsky.social is delighted to be able to announce that the tickets for our VIRTUAL Developing Teachers' Conference (Jan 31 2026) are now available from store.leedstrinity.ac.uk/product-cata... for inflation busting prices!

We’re delighted to be guests on the ReTeach History podcast along with @katemossewriter.bsky.social

Proudly using the important ‘F’ word today on the ReTeach History podcast…fairness! Fascinating convo with @katemossewriter.bsky.social & @sashasmith.bsky.social @reteachuk.bsky.social focusing on the End Sexism in Schools History Report. So important to educate to counter toxic attitudes 🎧🙌🏻

Thrilled to have @katemossewriter.bsky.social & @sashasmith.bsky.social as guests 🎧 @reteachuk.bsky.social podcast this week @alcs.co.uk talking about Kate’s new 📕 and this new report endsexisminschools.org.uk/campaign-pro... can’t wait for you to hear the episode 🚀🫵

Was looking back at some of the work I’ve done as I desperately try to get my resource rationale ready for final deadline, and I came upon this excellent point which I have included in my resources for teachers! #historyteacher #HenryOnTour @endsexisminschools.bsky.social @histassoc.bsky.social

Feeling extremely pleased to have completed my MA! Juggling teaching, new Assistant Head role, solo parenting, writing the ESIS report, and an MA… it’s been busy! Then facing one of the toughest times of my life recently, I didn’t know if I’d get there, so smashing a distinction was a real surprise!

Great episode of @reteachuk.bsky.social with lots of teasers for things to come from @histassoc.bsky.social and @1972shp.bsky.social Great work @carmelbones.bsky.social spotify.link/UukoXeiWxXb

I am absolutely delighted to be able to share the news about our next @1972shp.bsky.social Yorkshire History Forum which will be taking place in York on November 24th. We have a superb line up of workshops for #primary and #secondary #historyteachers and all for a bargain basement price ...

Very excited to share the forthcoming SHP Understanding event from @1972shp.bsky.social: Unearthed (Nov 10 5-6pm). The first in a series of webinars looking at the transformative and radical power of gardening - from the Diggers to Mary Seacole to settler colonialism we've got it covered!

Excellent to see this article in Tes by Alex Quigley on the ‘Five-a-day’ approach to teaching pupils with #SEND, a framework for inclusive practice that should give hope to a profession working incredibly hard to deliver lessons inclusively. lnkd.in/eT3EqjZr

Yesterday TMW's own Natasha Hodgson @nrhodgson-hist.bsky.social spoke with Naga Munchetty and Shalina Patel on @bbc5live.bsky.social about the recent @endsexisminschools.bsky.social report on the limited representation of women in the History curriculum. bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/...

The History and wider team at @endsexisminschools.bsky.social are grateful for the support of @histassoc.bsky.social for making their articles and research into women in the curriculum open in their article on our report. Change is possible, thank you HA! www.history.org.uk/secondary/ca...

Labubus, The Bell Jar and tampons: the ‘performative male’ attracts attention www.theguardian.com/fashion/2025...

Earlier this year, @nrhodgson-hist.bsky.social - one of the authorial team on this new report - wrote for the Royal Historical Society on this subject bit.ly/4nNLsSn and her important work for @teachmedwomen.bsky.social #Skystorians

For c.10years I've supervised #PGCE students who elect to explore representation of women in #history curriculum for their MA research project. Each year the same findings - 50% of the population remains underrepresented (even unacknowledged). This report is going straight on the reading list.

Hello #historyteacher colleagues. I have just uploaded the latest Curriculum PATHS blog. Please do have a look at all the exciting things which are on the horizon this year. If you are not already a CPATHS member, we'd love you to join us. curriculumpaths.schoolshistoryproject.co.uk/2025/09/23/c...

ESIS’ own @susannaboyd.bsky.social is one of the authors of our report. The article here informed some of our recommendations.

Thank you to @theguardian.com for covering our report into what’s taught in History lessons at Key Stage 3. Spoiler: mostly men. It’s time to end sexism in schools.

I love this bandage from c.1900 featuring illustrations on how to wrap wounds resulting from accidents involving a soldier, a sailor, a miner, and a woman whose clothes have caught fire. This amazing object is part of the Wellcome Collection in London.
