What a wonderful keynote presentation from Prof. Ann Lopez, inviting the #ISATT community to see teaching and learning as acts of justice and classrooms as places of radical love! #Humanity #Love #Activism for #SocialChange @drannlopez.bsky.social @uofgheadship.bsky.social

Soooo looking forward to this keynote!! From Teaching, to Teaching Teachers, to Teaching Teacher Educators. Professor Lin Goodwin is another international giant whose shoulders we stand on. 🩷 #ISATT2025

Quality Teacher Learning = Quality Education. Why then do we front load teacher professional learning at the preparation stage? Continued professional learning is essential ‘teaching’ work. #ISATT2025 @uofglasgow.bsky.social @uofgsocsci.bsky.social A. Lin Goodwin keynote @bostoncollege.bsky.social

Please, everyone involved in anything to do with schools: Don't initiate policies without parents. If your T&L policy doesn't mention parents - start again. Don't treat parents like a separate species. Don't just avoid but actively challenge deficit views of parents.... A thread

Fabulous representation from our #CenTCS team at @isatt2025.bsky.social next week! #ISATT2025 @uofgsocsci.bsky.social @uofglasgow.bsky.social @profbriannakennedy.bsky.social @profaileenk.bsky.social

Do extra payments to in-service teachers in shortage subjects improve retention? We thought our analysis might back up the fairly strong 'yes' from UK literature so far, but our findings were not as conclusive. In this blog I assess the findings and what they might mean for policy: bit.ly/4liHKQ5

We are ready for you #ISATT2025 Tremendous work from our professional services team on final preparations and 450+ delegate packs! @uofgsocsci.bsky.social @ioz100.bsky.social @angelajaap.bsky.social @drlaurenboath.bsky.social @alisonmitchelluofg.bsky.social @margery25.bsky.social @centcs.bsky.social

Interesting study into activity & mental health in adolescents. We should always remain aware as teachers that the brain's workings & mental health are not necessarily obvious or common sense. Doing more of something doesn't necessarily lead to a better outcome. www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

Gillies report into UofD Dundee financial collapse "Female members of staff in particular, reported being spoken over, sidelined or discussed in public as being obstructive if they attempted to be heard". I recognise this experience. Lack of dignity and respect, especially for "difficult" women.

This now joins a list of big, well-designed trials that show universal mental health interventions do not improve adolescent mental health (and indeed some show negative effects) BUT there is something important to note here: many young people didn't use the app much. i.e. engagement was low

I’ve had lots of messages about my Guardian article, in which I argued we should stop universal mental health lessons in schools. The messages have fallen into three categories, and I’m reflecting on this here because I think it exposes something interesting in the field (and research in general) 🧵

Joint #CenTCS Director @profbriannakennedy.bsky.social & #ITE students proudly co-facilitated an event with the wonderful Mary Cowhey, author of Black Ants and Buddhists. The students planned and organised the event and did a fantastic job! Thank you all for your support! @uofgsocsci.bsky.social
