"Independence is our goal but the only way to get there is, well, dependence." John Holmes of Tudor Grange Research School explores supporting independent learning beyond classrooms. Read more: ow.ly/mNLn50SreJf

The tone of this is far more optimistic than the usual “ it’s you, not us”. A refreshing approach that points towards a positive outlook for education 👏🏻

James Timpson, way before he was asked to help with prisons, and I think this will stand the test of time

Ebouuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu 😍 He’s back - and this time it’s for good! 🖤🤍 #DCFC

"I've been very lucky to have the career I've had" Daniel spoke to Mark Cavendish after his last Tour de France stage 🙌🇮🇲🚀 #TDF2024

Was sent this recently, and it’s very good and enjoy what you choose to do today, never lose sight of the joy of running, playing, catching, hitting, trying….have fun

Using AI/ChatGPT to plan your lessons is A) missing the point, planning lessons is critical for effective teaching and learning B) a technically a terrible idea (it's crap at it) C) a surefire way to lower the quality of educational resources over the long term

As good as it gets.

Makes such a difference when you know that the leader of your school will always act in the best interest of their staff. More should follow suit 👏🏻

It’s widely accepted that teachers are being directed to work significantly more than 1265 hours but, here we are, still wondering why teachers are leaving. Start taking staff wellbeing seriously and remove all of the nonsense that works against us.

This again, and again, is crucial. Who is responsible for creating and nurturing this sense of community and belonging? Staff. Not just ‘teaching staff’, but staff as a collective in the school. Put them first and they will, with direction and support, take care of this.

I'm sorry but I have to get this out of my chest as this has been in my mind all day about Vengeance Most Fowl The fact Wallace can't live without Gromit and Ben Whitehead's performance is fantastic as Wallace here has been the most emotional I have been over Wallace and Gromit

One of the funniest jokes in cinema history.

This is a fantastic perspective. Why does it need to be relentless? Why can’t it be strategic and done with the wellbeing and job satisfaction of staff at its heart. Had enough of relentless and folk chasing their tails.
