As the behavior debates have started, (again) just thought I’d post this (again). When the Adults Change Everything Changes: A discussion theunofficialteachersmanual.blog/2019/11/30/whe…

***NEW Episode*** Allow me to be absolutely direct: Your biggest problem next year is going to be low level disruption. It’s worth having a plan for how you’ll manage it before school starts. Me and Sam Strickland discuss some strategies. #PGCE #ECT open.spotify.com/episode/0ZDuAl…

Oh hello Britain 😳 That blue line is activity in the UK spiking past all of the other countries on Bluesky right now. Welcome, and invite a friend to join the fun! bsky.app/download🦋

I've been thinking a lot about whether I should stay here. I love the #edutwitter community but I fear it is slowly crumbling away as the f*r ri*ght takeover increases. I wrote about it over on EDTech Innovation Hub. It was quite cathartic ⬇️ Will you stay? edtechinnovationhub.com/comment/is-edu…

Good evening from Kuala Lumpur!! 😎 🇲🇾

Low level disruption. That’s what you’re gonna have to deal with. Lots of it. Have a listen if you get time before the kids arrive. #ECT #PGCE #edutwitter

On the way back home. The man in front of me got told he was carrying too much weight. He opened his suitcase, rearranged the items and asked for it to be weighed again. Who needs science, eh? #edutwitter

WOW!! It seems my podcast is doing pretty well! Massive thank you to both guests and listeners. Without you, none of this would’ve been possible. Do give me a follow on Spotify- The (Un)official Teacher’s Manual. Also- hit me with topic/guest suggestions below!

#PGCE #ECT As you begin your teaching journey, there will be a lot of talk about the importance of relationships. And that is true- they are important. But what does that mean and how do you build them? Check out my latest book below: amazon.co.uk/Little-Guide-T…

Morning #edutwitter! Who’s ready for tomorrow? 😩🤣 You’ve heard Ice Ice Baby- Well here’s INSET Baby. Thought I’d repost 😁.

I don’t know who needs to hear this, but you haven’t forgotten how to teach. #edutwitter

Serious post: Look after yourself this year. Doing ‘what’s best for the kids’ does not (and *must* not) necessitate the compromise of your health - mental and physical. It just isn’t worth it. *You* matter. Assert your boundaries unabashedly. You got this! #edutwitter

#ECTs They’re gonna tell you loads of procedures, processes etc this week. You won’t fully learn them all just by being told them. You’ll learn them properly when you have to *do* them. It doesn’t happen overnight so chill your beans alright? I’m just here to help. #edutwitter

I don’t know which #ECT needs to hear this, but everyone else is also falling asleep on the sofa. #edutwitter

First ‘proper’ day: Hat en pointe ✅ Beard en pointe ✅ Waistcoat/tie en pointe ✅ Let’s do this. Have a good’un. 😎
