Word of the day is 'sequaciousness' (17th century): the blinkered, unreasoning, and slavish following of another, no matter where it leads.

I've never been prouder to be Bristol City Poet & to offer a poem to my adopted city than I am today. This piece is called Hollow and I hope you like it. I've captioned it and everything!
Rust in shame, Eddie.

English teacher friends! Would appreciate recommendations for quality non-fiction texts for y9. Written by women/POC where poss! School context: many disadvantaged/unmotivated students with a lack of ambition. #teamenglish

Is @Ofstednews biased against schools with poorer pupils? Schools with a higher proportion of children on free school meals are much more likely to be rated either 'inadequate' or 'requires improvement', conference is told

Things teachers do but shouldn’t have to do:
Try and fix photocopiers 🔧
Miss lunch 🥪
Run extra “interventions”🤹♂️
Run detentions ⌚️
Give up PPA for meetings📋
Buy resources 💷
Take a pay cut for exam scores 📈
Stop deprofessionalising teaching!

BREAKING: Three-and-a-half years, two extensions, seven defections, 21 deselections, three prime ministers, countless amendments, two prorogations, one Supreme Court judgement, 66 million Brits losing the will to live and we’re still at square one.
