No agenda. Interested in ideas. Sometimes respond, but mostly just enjoy the contributions of others - even those with whom I disagree.

Instead of bringing in guest speakers to talk about teaching and inspire us with anecdotes, why not have them actually teach? Put them in a real classroom and let’s watch the magic happen. Let us see how they plan, how they adjust in the moment, how they respond to student

Brian Tolentino M.Ed this would change everything about PD. anyone can give a polished keynote about classroom strategies. putting them in front of 30 real kids and watching them navigate the chaos in real time is where you actually learn something. the messy moments are where the best teaching

Anna Ridgway ConservativeHome I’ve read your article. There are things missing that you’re either not aware of or are deliberately omitting. Go back to ‘99 when the pension was based on inflation in September. It was 1.1% & gave pensioners a .75p rise. The avg wage rose that year by 4.6%.

Jaikaran Brian Tolentino M.Ed What you would probably learn is they have no ability to actually teach and that what they are hawking doesn’t work in a real classroom setting.

We don’t have a classroom management problem. We have an emotional regulation crisis that teachers are being asked to handle. Somehow, “classroom management” has turned into: • de-escalating trauma • supporting anxiety and depression • calming panic attacks • breaking up

𝐁𝐫𝐚𝐝 𝐉𝐨𝐡𝐧𝐬𝐨𝐧 You have to love the job, love teaching and learning and love kids to be a good teacher. It also helps to like parents and be able to interact with people from all walks of life. And - have knowledge, and know how to impart it. And lead by example. You need to have energy.

James Melville 🚜 James Melville 🚜, claims like this need evidence, not amplification. White phosphorus is a serious allegation with a specific legal meaning. It isn't banned outright, but its use against civilians is. That distinction matters, which is why the accusation gets used so freely:

Real teacher training happens in the job when you ask other colleagues how they best teach a particular pupil to get the best out of them - in this way you learn how to teach the individual not the label 🤔😀

Edwina Currie The truth is that they varied from school to school. I attended 5 schools between 1964 and 1977. In two of them the meals were awful, in two passable and in one superb. It really depended on the skills of the dinner ladies.

Katharine Birbalsingh A much easier a job when fully supported by senior colleagues who understand what education is for, rather than league-table chasers, fad theory followers, etc. Roger Scruton told me "Education is to pass knowledge on from one generation to the next." It should not be so complex.

John Mike Yardley Wrong framing. People paying into the system for 40+ years aren’t asking for charity — they’re asking for the pension they were promised after a lifetime of National Insurance contributions. The real issue isn’t pensioners getting “too much”, it’s decades of weak wage growth,
