The UCL ed psych doctorate course is "winding down" due to a desire by the DfE to have a greater distribution of courses across the country (several are currently concentrated in London) and because the IoE also offers the doctorate schoolsweek.co.uk/top-educat… Thoughts? #twitterEPs

Lots of coverage today of the UK study that says breastfed kids are more likely to get good exam results.
This is the study: adc.bmj.com/content/early/20…
I can't possibly write another article about this because you'll think I'm obsessed, so here's a Twitter thread about it instead:

How do TEPs and EPs go about collecting child voice post consultation or assessment? Or just in general about how things are at school? Wondering if anyone uses any apps or online tools? Any thoughts much appreciated #twittereps

I strongly recommend 'The Genetic Lottery' by @kph3k. We cannot ignore the role genetics plays in understanding ourselves, but also we must disentangle the history of eugenics from genetics research to move forward. Super thought-provoking

You are almost certainly very bad at judging yourself for things related to self-worth. Try and recalibrate using information from others.
Hay una alta probabilidad de que no te juzgues con precisión. Tienes que usar las opiniones de las otras personas.

Another attempt to reduce the complexity of rising adolescent self-harm to smartphones.
Important to note:
The original graph has been re-drawn in ways that affect its interpretation.
