"Every child deserves a champion, an adult who will never give up on them. Is this job tough? You betcha. But it is not impossible. We're educators. We're born to make a difference." Watch Rita Pierson's full TED Talk here: t.ted.com/JsDYAud

Made a little booklet to introduce students to ‘How Learning Happens’ next term. I’ve added the PDF versions of the Forgetting Pit infographics to my google drive - link in pinned tweet. Thanks to Bruce Robertson for the inspiration! ⭐️

NEW! One-pager on questioning techniques to elicit evidence of learning. Thanks to the inspirational people featured: Doug Lemov Tom Sherrington Daniel Willingham 🙌

There were some lovely comments about this strategy at the fab #TMHI22 conference. This is a 'clean' version of the CREPT Analysis idea I showed - you could drop all sorts of different sources or interpretations in there @TMHistoryIcons Oxford Secondary #GCSEHistory #gcses2022

The nerves and anticipation were very much in full swing and real this morning ahead of our first exam! It’s been a while!! #GCSEs #MedicineThroughTime

Our last exam tomorrow. My favourite of all the topics we do, Elizabethan England!! Or as the students call it ‘Big Liz’ 😅🤦🏻‍♀️ Let’s hope it’s a good one 🤞🏻 #GCSEs #History

Woohoo! Really chuffed to have achieved this. I really enjoyed the course and would recommend it Chartered College of Teaching 🙌🏻🌟 #evidencebased #teaching

SUMMER RESOURCES! Last summer I shared 4 SOWs and 1 extra this year to reduce summer workload. Here it is again in one thread if you missed it. I'll add an extra KS3 SOW next week. All come with KOs and research-informed lessons. Retweet to save a teacher time. #edutwitter

Very proud of my new parents book swap trolley, ready to wheel out on the gate when school opens next week. We are on a mission to make EVERYONE in our school community to become a reader and have our parents leading by example. Reading for Pleasure 🧶

Hi #edutwitter - I am wanting to do something for our staff for #RandomActOfKindness day - I have a few ideas but does anyone already have any tried and tested suggestions that work well? (we already do things like staff breakfasts etc.) #wellbeing #secondary #teaching 🌟

I had no money growing up. My dad was a labourer and my mum did everything to make ends meet. Men worked hard. Women worked miracles. But education was free. As was the local library. I knew books were my passport to a better life. Happy #WorldBookDay

I saw another educator posting cards they’ve made earlier - I was inspired & created some for myself / colleagues - if they’re of use to you an editable document with them all on is in my pinned tweet #classof2023 #relationships #History #Geography #RE #MFL 🌟

First exam day today for our Historians! #edexcel #paper1 - good luck to all educators out there during exam season and to your students 🌟🤞🏻
