Having worked in a single form entry primary school, there is should be no question imo it is harder in terms of workload and expectation. Small schools carry the weight often on two or three teachers, as apposed to spread over many. Ofsted needs to acknowledge and recognise this

Help us spread the word about our upcoming open evening.

THE CALL Imagine having a really important interview that you’ve prepared years for and you badly want to ace. You’ve worked as hard as you could and have committed your life to it. Imagine every night going to bed, wondering if it’ll be the next day. But it doesn’t come that

Solidarity with all the teachers taking action today! This is about our children's futures not just pay and conditions. Thanks to everyone giving up their pay to push for change. National Education Union

I think it's about time teaching unions stood UNITED on the state of our schools. The National Education Union and its members are shouldering the burden as it stands. Moving forward, we have to have solidarity for any real progress to be made.

This is why we strike. ❤️ #saveourschools

Lots of discussion, negotiation, problem solving and risk assessing for P1 while playing in the tree. #outdoorlearning Love Outdoor Learning

TAs deserve more pay. What makes me sad & angry is that people who are great at their job have to find a 2nd job or even go & work in a different job because the pay of a TA isn’t enough to make ends meet.There’s no way some of these jobs should pay more than a TA! Sort it Sunak

In ancient Mesopotamia, around 1750 BC, an interesting incident occurred involving the first documented complaint, albeit in the form of a clay tablet. The complaint was composed by a man named Nanni and addressed to a merchant named Ea-nasir. Nanni expressed his frustration

2. Things are really tough at the moment. 3. There’s a staffing crisis, it’s more acute in some parts of the country than others but there are very few places I visit that don’t have recruitment / retention issues 4. School budgets are the tightest they’ve been for years and

There’s a huge amount of uncertainty and anxiety about the future. 5. Restructuring to make ends meet is rife, this can cause huge anxiety and isn’t conducive to school development 6. The impact of Ofsted on teacher and headteacher wellbeing is massive. The levels of anxiety are

Off the scale in some schools 7. Schools are picking up the slack where other services have been stripped to the bone. 8. In some parts of the country the waiting list to see a paediatrician / specialist is >2 years 😡 9. Schools have become the one stop shop for many services

10. The extra funding and staffing needed to carry out these roles just isn’t there. 11. There’s a perception that everyone expects things to be “back to normal” as if covid never happened but the impact on children and families is still very apparent.

12. The cost of living crisis is impacting on children’s lives in a way that no intervention in school can really ameliorate. 13. There’s a lot of love, happiness and joy in schools, but there’s also a feeling that “fidelity” is potentially stripping this away. 14. Lots

Of leaders and teachers are starting to question whether the schemes they were told would solve their ills really do deliver on their promises. 15. Lots of people know that communication and language underpins all other learning, and are realising that some favoured approaches

16. Aren’t conducive to developing this vital area. 17. Staff are working so very hard and achieving amazing things in the most difficult of circumstances. 18. Some staff feel frustrated and “de skilled” by over prescription. 19. Primary and EY settings are unique and different

To secondary schools and we should celebrate that and do everything we can to retain what makes them special. Finally (well done if you made it this far) 20. It’s an honour and privilege to work with all the educators I have worked with this year, they’re absolute heroes ! Thanks

What Is A Ruckus? My secretary called and said there was a ruckus in the front hallway. I was really excited to see what was going on. I wanted to know what a ruckus was. I learned that a ruckus was a small boy I hadn’t net yet. The ruckus was ripping our bulletin board off the
