A🧵of some of my graphics on tectonics. 1/ The "world premiere"😉of my summary graphic on the main processes at work causing plates motion. I shared this in my #GAConf22 session this afternoon, but now it's time to share it more widely!

In the last 48 hours baby girl has gone from army crawling to buggering off at the speed of light in pursuit of the cat. 10 months old next week and there’s no stopping her now! 😳🥰

I do love a rainy day and June was very dry so we need the rain… but I just want to go for a nice walk 🥲

I exclusively pumped for 4 months and let me tell you it was HARD! With a baby on the NICU you have little option & is one of the things that you feel a sense of control over. The level of support for pumping mothers is disgraceful, we need to do better! #WorldBreastfeedingWeek

Does anyone have any tips or links to advice for a new HoD? I’ve done 3 mat covers but there is something way more daunting about just being in charge 🙈 we have an ECT starting in September too so lots going through my mind at the moment

It's been a very long time since I have written a blog post. But I've summarised the 2023 AQA examiner reports and some key takeaways here. It's not quite as short as I planned but may be useful to some... #GeographyTeacher jennnnnnnnn.wordpress.com/2023/08/28/les…

Ok five years ago I sent out a load of micro tips for new teachers getting ready for September. By popular demand (literally nobody) here they are again!

How much attention have your geographers paid to the news over the summer… Here’s a 🆓 35 question ‘complete the headline quiz’ to get them back into a #geography mindset & ready to embark on their 2023-2024 academic year shorturl.at/dnzYZ #teacher #geographerteacher

Hope everyone’s first week back has gone well! 😇

First week as HOD. Major IT issues. Heatwave. Husband with norovirus. Baby’s first week at nursery. Tired.

This is my doorstep. What a crazy night we’ve had, nearly reaching historically high levels on this stretch of the River Aire. Only been living here since March so now we need to go buy some sandbags just incase for the future 🙈

Happy last week of HT1 everybody who is still plodding away like me! 😴😴😴😴

So like I know we’re at a pinch point at school right now, assessment time always is. But how are we all coping? New HoD and new mum, I need some serious coping advice.

Solidarity to anyone else who is sat marking Y11 mock exams on this dreary Saturday morning

We are looking for someone to join our Geography Department from September 2024! We are an outstanding school with fantastic transport links on train to Leeds/Wakefield and M62 just a few minutes away. castlefordacademytrust.com/2024/02/01/tea…

Oh wow, haven’t been on here since Feb. Had some awful family news in April and have been hiding away. Hope everyone is good 🙈
