“the principal’s role is to lead the school’s teachers in a process of learning to improve their teaching, while learning alongside them about what works and what doesn’t.”

Love this :)

Exhausted, yes. But underneath the end-of-term burnout is the quiet thrill of a new beginning.
September is coming—with fresh energy, fresh goals, and the chance to begin again.

At school people often comment on my ‘energy’. But I’m on autopilot. Very little surprises me. I know my values. My reactions r in line with values. There’s little to think about.

People often ask me, ‘How long does it take to turn a school around?’ My reply, ‘How consistent are you prepared to be? How vigilant? How resilient when under attack? You willing to risk your job?’

Back home from my second visit to @HopefieldsEd school.
The provision they offer for students who have previously struggled to access education due to SEMH reasons, is truly remarkable.
The climate for learning that Emily and the team have built is amazing. The starting point of the journey is even more admirable.
Too many superlatives, but if you ever get the chance, I'd recommend a visit!
Thanks to all staff and students!

People who impress me most make decisions built on their strong values. Strong values create a lot of certainty. I’ve known a lot of people be rudderless. Decisions made in line with fashion. Virtue signallers. They display a kind of groupthink self assurance too.

One of the biggest problems with the world is that fools are always so sure and certain about everything and intelligent people are so full of doubts and uncertainties.

Lots of discussion on this, some of it questionable.
Never mind approaches and ideologies. The young man deserves praise for leading his group in fine fashion and getting results. He's a credit to his school and school community.
Congratulations, @Mr_Raichura.

Direct instruction is joyful & leads pupils to success. Here is a *clip* where I use high frequency & high participation questioning in 3 phases:
1. Check for listening
2. Rehearsal
3. Check for understanding
Established routines: all hands up, turn & talk, SLANT & ruler reading

My open letter to the Education Secretary @bphillipsonMP
Many teachers and school leaders share my concerns with regard to her decisions but are scared to say.
If you can find it in you, please RT.
