Edutwitter frequently underestimates what very young children know and can do. Question of the day from our 3 year old: what’s the difference between a horn and a tusk?

I don’t agree with all on the list but there are some crackers that are well worth a read. Some good recommendations Naureen!

What a retrograde step that would be for many reasons, not least that it will inevitably pile extra pressure on teachers and do nothing to help recruitment and retention.

So #Ofsted planning a 5 point grading system across ( checks reports) 10 areas? Off the scale madness.

Plus using colours rather than grades - we see you #Ofsted, we see you!

If I were HMCI I would avoid putting in place any system that placed teachers and leaders under more pressure. It’s really not hard to do, but I fear that is exactly what is going to happen.

Looking at standards Sky News. Sort out your apostrophes it’s not ‘school inspection’s’!

Make sure you have your say on the new proposals for #Ofsted inspection. It’s probably a done deal, but it’s how our schools and school leadership will be judged going forward. Improving the way Ofsted inspects education - GOV.UK gov.uk/government/con…

Saw a post by someone (can’t remember who) saying the new #Ofsted report card’s like an APP grid. Been looking at it & you know, they’re right - & we all remember the nightmare of filling those things in and making an accurate judgement! Good luck to both schools & inspectors.

#MagnetKitchens - avoid at all costs. Customer Service is not just poor, it is not existent and their 10 year guarantee worthless. They should be ashamed of themselves, leaving an issue unresolved for in excess of 3 YEARS. g.co/kgs/74fKNNY

Reposting as their appalling customer sevice warrants it. Avoid #MagnetKitchens at all costs. Customer Service is non existent & their 10 year guarantee worthless. #Orpington branch manager should be ashamed of himself, leaving an issue unresolved for in excess of 3 YEARS.
