What a week! Anyone else's cohorts feeling the stress of upcoming class changes and dread about not actually wanting to be home for the upcoming holidays? #teaching #safeplace #donteatthat

Relational practice is deffinately well embedded in your school if you can have a summer fete with 65+ SEMH children out mixing together and having fun without a single falling out or incident! #relationalpractice #inclusion #fun Doc1000# @teacherfarmer1 Carl Moore

Genuinely interested in the debate around this - imo we would be risking young people's lives in many instances due to the multitude of ways such news may be received - not all parents are well rounded tolerant, inclusive adults? Imagine the lifetime trauma that could ensue?

Yes! Yes! Yes! 😍 Razz M Doc1000# @teacherfarmer1 you will know how much this means to me! Thank you, HYWEL ROBERTS😀🦈, for being you and making this valuable work of yours so accessible. #botheredness #SEMH #teaching

core.ac.uk/download/pdf/2… This literature review is a useful reminder of the complexity of leadership and contemporary theory. How do you lead? Who do you read? #edchat #outdooreducation #johnmuir #colinmortlock #botherdness #leadership #motivation #inspiration

Love the idea shared by Mr G #33for33 How are you going to refill your cup this summer? 🇬🇧UK Ambassador for happiness 🙂 inspires me to take this very seriously so, it's time to try something new again this summer, I'm just not decided on what, any ideas? #edchat #bealearner #summerhols

naturalseatonfestival.co.uk First on the 'try new things' menu is this lovely little festival that we've not done before, fingers crossed the weather holds!

Hits you right in the feels when you bump into a parent and they tell you that this is the first time in 7 years they've had a worry free relaxed holiday and that their whole household has benefited as result of the care and hard work of you and your colleagues with their YP ❤

Rulebooks tell people what to do. Frameworks guide people on how to act. Rulebooks insist on discipline. Frameworks allow for creativity.

So many happy faces! Fave comment of the day came from a YP who has struggled to attend in previous years 'Miss Miss Miss! Guess what, I wasn't worried about coming to school today, I was actually so excited that I got my adults to wake me up at 7.30am!' #edchat #teaching #SEMH

Word!

Love the simplicity of many points made here, useful and encouraging reminder that what isn't always easy for some to accept is still the right way towards success of the goals and bigger picture 👍

So sad that 18 years after I was PEx, the obvious is still not yet blindingly obvious or supported #Don'texcludeme #bbc2 ☹ A reminder that our own org. culture embued with kindness and PBS, is Vspecial! #breakingthecycle #trauma #relationalpractioner #kindness #curiosity #roots

Weekend kicking off well, a swim in the sea this evening followed by an afternoon drumming tomorrow, soaking up the last of the summer sun and re-filling my cup after an emotional and busy, but exciting and productive week! #letsgo #whirlwind #goteam #balance #reflectandunwind

What would the title be?

Pedagogy of/and place; essential when considering curiosity as a factor (sensory/cognitive) in the context of intrinsic motivation How do you set up and use your classroom environment to facilitate curiosity & storytelling? #edchat #botheredness #learning #education #motivation

Whilst deregulated and upon realising that we won't reject them, instead simply repeat/facilitate existing expectations and boundries - "I'm getting f***ing sick of this. Why the f*** are you so f***ing kind to me?"🤣❤ #PowerOfKindness #WhenTheAdultsChange #EducationMatters

Today we led a CPD session - MHW. Invited collegues to consider how they refill their cup, couldn't resist an orbee demo either! Here's a little of how I refill my cup. We must have love for ourselves to be our best 4 others. Can't wait to see their/your sharing! 🇬🇧UK Ambassador for happiness 🙂
