Another reason why our reading programme is so important. All of our students start the day with 20 minutes of reading. 📚 #justreading

Our Tutor Time Reading Programme!! 📚I first saw this @YateAcademy and loved it. Funding from @ArmedForcesEduc has helped us to buy books for this programme and since September, almost 70% of our students have increased their reading age! #justreading. #proud

Streets in #Portsmouth and #Southsea can now apply to go car free on some Sundays so more children can play outside. It follows a successful trial last summer. This video is by 12-year-old Lucy Piper

Let’s not even talk about the grammatical aspect of this piece of work 😳. What caught my eye was the handwriting.. ✒️ Most French children write like this. Should we work more on development of handwriting in the UK? #handwriting #presentationmatters

Tiens, une autre question à laquelle je dois répondre : phrase 4, l'élève s'est trompé, il dit que "malheureusement" est un CC de Cause.
En classe, quand ce n'est pas un CC au programme, je leur dis d'écrire CC "tout court".
Mais vous, vous diriez que c'est un CC de quoi ?

This has reminded me of my reading list this half term 📚- Matt Pinkett and Mark Roberts’
‘Boys Don't Try? Rethinking Masculinity in Schools’. What are you reading? #sltreadinglist

We are intent on making sure our daughter knows that she is both “really, really smart” and that she is capable of “brilliance” every single day.

We seem to be bucking this trend in Year 10! But that is it. I wonder why this is the case... any thoughts? What can we do to get more boys into languages? #mfltwitterati

New report released: Boys studying modern foreign languages at GCSE.
'Just 38% of boys in England took a foreign language at GCSE in 2018, compared with about 50% of girls.' Still, some schools beat the odds. BBC News reports: bbc.co.uk/news/education-512…

313 responses so far which is fab. I know I'm no survey professional but the idea is to get a sense of how teachers feel. If you find the multi-choice options limiting, please make comments in the open questions: I'll publish everything submitted.

What a great idea. Thanks for sharing @SPBeale - showcased really effectively. #revisiontips #gcse2020

Some year 12 students have kept up with the “folding frenzy” revision technique we do at GCSE. Notes, mind map, keywords then images. It can then be used for lots of low stakes testing.

I really like this. I might adapt it for use with our Paired Learning Walks. #coaching #teachingandlearning

I often use mentoring / coaching cards in my discussions with staff so that we can ascertain what’s ideal, what’s working and what’s next.

Thanks @teacherhead. Perfect timing. Change can be tough and scary, particularly when some staff had their fingers burnt by the last good idea factory round. #teachingandlearning #cpd #change
