I enjoyed talking to Nick Ferrari on LBC this morning as I drove in to deliver a half-term intervention for my year 13 students. Nick was very pleasant, and hopefully, he and the public understand that teachers are dedicated and that our goodwill has been taken for granted!

typically on the day of half term i wake up and decide to do the work i’ve been putting off that requires internet access, the wifi goes down 🤦🏻‍♀️

parents evening: behind the scenes 🐈

this is my kind of thread 🐈🥰

Being a teacher is… unexplained* bruises on your thighs. *from walking into tables.

Amazing teacher placards in London today! #SaveOurSchools

Over 50,000 teachers today calling on Gillian Keegan to fix the crisis in our schools #SaveOurSchools

“Many believe that sari-clad women can’t run, I wanted to prove them wrong!” Love this story 😍 Madhusmita Jena, a teacher from Manchester, ran the city’s marathon in this beautiful sari, in 4h 50. I find it hard enough to walk in a sari, let alone run 26 miles! Amazing 💪🏾

marking an essay style answer from a year seven, one paragraph has 11 rhetorical questions in total 🙃

During my year 8 lesson today there was a wet patch on my back soaking through my dress. Unbelievable levels of gross. Kids wilting like week old flowers. We all did our best but, British classrooms are not built to learn in these kind of temperatures.

doing the trolley problem as a p4c with a class and we get to the example of there being a family member on the track, at which point a couple start laughing because on my current read board is ‘i’m glad my mom died’ by jennette mccurdy 😂

strike on july 7th?? happy speak now (taylor’s version) day 💜

My son is impacted by the #TeacherStrike today. But, it’s not just today. In fact, it’s every week. Cover teachers; reducing subject experts; reduced school trips; lack of classroom resources; Ltd school transport … the list goes on.

first day of teaching for 23-24 done! 🤍

this is so lovely!!

Being a teacher at this time of year is wild because this is literally the first time I’ve seen daylight in a week when I haven’t been on break duty

First we had religion divided by exam board and now it's divided by country. 😒
