Quirky Teacher KT T - 🕊️ 💚 🇪🇺 Sue Cowley @live_looper @Ara314413 Pete Moorhouse An x ray of a developed hand (around the age of 7) compared to an EYFS age child’s hand is pretty informative. Also occupational therapists issue fantastic advice on how to develop handwriting in an age appropriate way matched to children’s physical development.

Agreed great morning, particularly thank you to headteachers who engaged with us in the maths. Determined to make the session interactive! Mastery Specialists play such an important role in the development of other teachers as they develop expertise in their own classroom in TfM

So exciting!!!!

Just realized that I've never tweeted a link to the IES's 2007 Practice Guide on "Organizing instruction and study to improve student learning": bit.ly/3jLEzQk. The checklist makes a much better placemat than most of the quick reference guides offered to teachers.

#5PillarsOfLearning This term I have been working on aligning #TLAC & #Rosenshine with our own "5 Pillars of Learning" Evidence based practice at the core of our T&L. Can't wait to start rolling this out with staff & students after half term. #OutwoodFamily #OutwoodResearch💜

I’ve collated a new bank of the podcasts and webinars I’ve watched in 20/21. 🔗155 links in total - curated under the following broad headings: ▪️DEI ▪️Pastoral & Behaviour ▪️SEND ▪️Teaching ▪️Reading ▪️Prof Dev ▪️Curriculum ▪️Leadership Help yourself👇🏻 dropbox.com/s/1qd410bbxl3g…

My attempt to cut through the range of terminology used around curriculum which can be confusing to Subject Leaders who have a young family, a car that needs servicing, a stack of marking to do & who do a great job but don't have time to read loads about curriculum like I might.

Single word reductive Ofsted judgments are contributing to a recruitment & retention crisis and driving poor mental health outcomes for staff. Regrettably, they are used by the current Government to crudely categorize schools, which is why there is little appetite for reform.

Right now, there are two mental health crises within our education system. They're adversely affecting huge numbers of people in our school communities. Both should be taken very seriously. But they're seldom talked about together. It's time to talk about them together. 1/
