Could not agree more. It was the best move of mine. Some of the best, most dedicated science teachers I've ever worked with at Blaise and we LOVE teaching and learning here (plus a great PD programme if I say so myself).

What incredible students we have. Want to work in a school where this is the norm? HoD Science and Science Teacher jobs available. Get in touch 💚✨️👩‍🔬

What teaching looks like every lesson every day at Blaise. A toolbox of means of participation techniques available for teachers to judiciously select to help students think hard about the right thing ✨️

Are you a scientist who believes in the transformational power of education? We want to hear from you. Our vacancies for HoD and Teacher close this week. Please do get in touch. Closes Thursday. Greenshaw Learning Trust Recruitment tes.com/jobs/employer/…

Such a useful thread here from Haili about how video (among other things) can be used to support powerful conversations around teacher development Ms R MFL Dave Tushingham FCCT

Such an exciting role at our school for Senior Behaviour Lead 💚

What a team. What a term. #lovewhereyouwork

I've never seen teachers so enabled, by professional learning, systems, curricular expectations and standards of behaviour that are so much better than when I started in the late 90s. Some ECTs better than anything from back then. Systems and structures enable.

When multiple teachers within a school all use the same routines, special things happen. A short thread on collective acceleration: ↓

Many say that centralised resources stop teachers from flexing their expertise, but our approach does the opposite, argues Matt Carnaby of Astrea Academy Trust tes.com/magazine/teach…

Inspired by today's Evidence Snacks from Peps, I thought I'd challenge 8B to our longest call and response ever. After rehearsing in pairs, students repeated the definition of diffusion, together, word perfect, using our whole school C&R routine. Proud! Blaise High School

Another example of the great things we're doing at Blaise. MCQs used to diagnose misconceptions and kick start a means of participation sequence. Students thinking hard about the right thing, every minute of every lesson. Leading PD at our school is such a pleasure & privilege 💚

‘Many schools’ vs ‘Trajectory-changing schools’

This is SUCH a great clip showing how we use carefully planned and sequenced means of participation to get students thinking hard about the right thing. T&L at Blaise is flying 💚

Very high quality start to 2025 Blaise High School led by Nancy Jessiman-Wiltshire and Ms R MFL. You don't always have to add something new! January is for JOY!

Our new science homework plan, led by our fantastic HoD, is going to help year 11s so much in the lead up to their exams. Success breeds motivation!

Such a great opportunity to come and join us at Blaise. Always happy to answer questions about our school- ask away!

What an incredible school we have 💚 (spot me saying "claps on two" at year 7 line up!)
