Camping trip to Wales - just the kids and I. 3 days of adventuring, barbecuing, story-telling by the fire, gazing at beautiful scenery, recharging, feeling alive!

I've been writing about experienced teacher retention for five years
I wrote a book about it in 2020 'Preserving Positivity' & am now writing a book with @Sam_LGibbs 'Love the One You're With.' Every teacher I interview talks about psychological safety and belonging. A 🧵:

Such an inspiring keynote from @katrionaos - author of Poor. A reminder that we can ‘light the darkness’ in the children we serve and that if we ‘fertilise the soil, go the extra mile and use our privilege’ we can make a difference. Thank you! 🙏 ❤️ @Cabotfederation

Today marks the end of 3 years of part time, my last Weds school drop off/ day with the twins. It has been such a special time and I am incredibly grateful to @BristolMet for this opportunity. The last 8 years at Met has been such a fab epoch. What a school!

Some thoughts about the value of learning quotations in GCSE English Lit for @Team_English1 📚
When the exams changed to closed book, this became the focus - hammering quotations. But I believe the quotations are just the bones of what students need to retain & understand🦴

❤️ for all my fellow teachers
ALT For a Teacher Yes, you will be tired. You will be tested by their wild hearts. But those hearts are little fires in the darkness. Remember what the gift is. Remember to help a voice begin is a sacred act. Remember no one knows when they've been saved. Listen. Let the world say all is ruined. You know where the changes start, in darkness. Start again with the small things, the smallest things. Breathe. Be open. Keep going. Show them you are listening, in wonder. Gentleness is the next revolution. Help them all to say each other's names. —Joseph Fasano

So incredibly sad to hear of the passing of @Rob7Burrow It is impossible to fathom how one human being could be that strong and courageous. Deepest love and condolences to the family.
