This is fascinating. Is this how people correspond? I have never seen workplace correspondence like this and don’t imagine I ever will.

Leading in education: New Ofsted - No idea how it will work. Curriculum - Awaiting review so no idea what it will become. SEND - No idea what will happen. In the meantime… best get on!

Those of us in the game have known this for years. Interesting to see if the new Ofsted regime will do anything other than punish schools for having the ‘wrong’ students and reward others for having the right ones. www.tes.com/magazine/new...

#edusky can anyone help me to find some trampoline training for our PE teachers please? We've been trying for about 2 years and not managed it!

I think I might have reached that point in the holidays where I’m ready to think again. Evidence: today I arranged my bookshelves in colour order.

Second house move in 7 months done. Also second house move in 25 years. And not planning on budging again! But was better at it this time round. Mainly because I think I threw everything away last time!!

The thing I like most about holidays is that if you slow down, do nothing, read, nap etc, you don’t then have to compensate by doing things super fast or having stuff you should have done but didn’t. That’s me all thought-out for today!

This is so true.

At least if you get a no notice you’ll be able to spot them in the car park.

But I’m not upstairs. Because I know I’m not allowed. Duh!

I seem to have a Cat Dog! He’s really quite big so no idea how he fitted himself on that small cushion!!!

You’re walking less than you normally do at this point. Thank you to the God of bank holidays.

Love a bank holiday getaway. What a view for a pub lunch!

Primary educators 👋🏻 I am interviewing teachers for a research project aimed at understanding how teachers learn from each other in the workplace. But my sample is currently very secondary heavy Could you (please!) spare me an hour of your time this week or next? It will be interesting, I promise!

Gosh it’s hard being a grown up and having a job and eating proper food and walking the dog and not running out of clean clothes. Adulting is so tedious.

Thanks to the scousers for making every mathematician’s day. ⚽️ 🤓

Does anyone have an example of a student timetable for a week at uni doing a maths degree (first year probably)? I know all will be a bit different but it has been so long since I did mine I just want to see any examples! Thank you! Please share if you can 😁

Hard to see how anyone is affording this!

it's a long ask, but I was thinking fondly of a Cambridge tutor of mine today and have completely blanked on his name, and I figured there's a chance somebody here might know him. He was a former miner who used the payout to go to university and do a PhD in Eng. Lit, studying Tony Harrison I think.
