With our ever increasing reliance on AI to do our thinking for us - it is so important that we practice and develop our skills as reflective, critical thinkers! Great session @MsNDevlin #wearebrightfutures

Today we are learning how to effectively manage workload - including an excellent presentation on the positives and pitfalls of AI from Chris Capon of AGGS. Thanks Chris, and as always all our trainees for their valuable contributions!๐งก#wearebrightfutures

It is so important to have strategies to support our most vulnerable pupils - and equally important to support the well-being of our trainees. Fantastic session from @lisawisher on the impact of early trauma on pupils & looking after your own well-being. Thank you! ๐งก

Really interesting discussions happening about annotation on here. I've always thought that theme tracking might be more useful? Nobody does it more beautifully than Kate in Year 10 #litincolour #leavetaking

Really enjoying this thread on how to approach texts when teaching - covers the balance of "granular interpretation of technique" and "magic of the text"
23 Nov 2025
oh yeah, i totally agree, but always get told off by English teachers when I say so. It's normally an attention trap. I'll ask students what the annotation they *literally just wrote down* means and they can't answer (sometimes can't even repeat it).
