A great Q&A with Simon Reeve and The PTI this afternoon. Thankyou for the opportunity to listen to Simon’s stories. Discovered a new website too, to plan future travel plans by train!

Curriculum, books, fieldwork, GIS, retrieval practice, booklets, geographical lenses, decolonising geography and increasing collaboration at KS5...all in 90 minutes. A wonderful evening of CPD from GeogChat. Thanks for organising and all of the speakers too 👏

'Finding a way for people and wildlife to share land and resources is the ultimate conservation challenge.' A fantastic book from Levison Wood encompassing so many links to geography: conservation, development, tourism, bottom-up NGO work, and habitat loss to name a few!

Another great evening of #geographyteachers coming together...juggling GeogChat and Sheffield GA’s Teachmeet. Lots of ideas again looking at literacy, curriculum, visualisers, GIS, Google Tour Builder, Glaciation, fieldwork #GANorthernGeog

Slowly dipping back into school work... First up a hazards booklet focusing on recapping, consolidating and applying knowledge. #geographyteacher #gcsegeography

Re-thinking how to incorporate exam practice into the classroom this year. Too often the focus is on breaking WAGOLLs down, so this year I'm trialling taking common issues and focusing on levelling up answers in a 'Basic, Better, Best' approach.

A rainy, Tuesday morning has led to this being devoured in one sitting! So many useful and practical strategies that can be incorporated into any classroom.

Great work as always from Staffordshire Research School @ John Taylor

✅ Ready to start the new half term with some literacy CPD tomorrow: 📖 summaries of: Closing the Reading Gap The Writing Revolution And a Padlet with links to lots of different blogs and research.

Trialling a new weekly T&L strategy in the weekly department bulletin. This weeks focus is on retrieval practice. #TeachingAndLearning

Re-reading some of the case studies that feature in my new book about retrieval practice & they are brilliant! Hugh Richards Adam Boxer Louis Everett Tom Needham Patrice Bain @Ni_Principal Jodie Powers David Goodwin & more ... just superb stuff! 👏🏻👏🏻📖

I’ve been jealous seeing everyone’s copy of Mark Enser 🌍’s new book arriving...but the postman delivered this beauty whilst I was on key worker duty. Can’t wait to start reading! Thanks Mark for the opportunity to share a little bit about our curriculum. #geographyteacher

A fantastic opportunity by Kate Jones to share my thoughts in her new book! Looking forward to reading it over half-term.

Biting the bullet and trialling online assessments, ready for after half-term and using Google Forms.

Needed a screen detox this half term so I took up baking bread 🍞👩🏼‍🍳

A privilege to take these amazing young ladies to the APPEG debate today!

Tell me it’s Curriculum Enrichment day tomorrow without saying it’s Curriculum Enrichment day tomorrow… 👇🏼 #geographyteacher #budgetfriendlyfieldwork
