From the archives ⏰ Do you remember a period of time when Twitter was relatively new to us all; when the teacher community was still evolving? Even here, Twitter was 10 years old. The Department for Education engaging with school leaders via #SLTchat ~2016
Gutted to see the end of @SLTchat. It provided a free, non-judgemental place for leaders to meet and challenge one another in a constructive and supportive way. That it ultimately wasn’t sustainable for the sch leaders that ran it says much about the state of education. Sigh.
We know the education Twitter community will continue to share ideas without our weekly forums. This is why we have decided to hang up on 🥾 boots and stop using @SLTchat. The #SLTchat hashtag will live on!
It’s been wonderful being part of the @SLTchat team. I can’t wait to see what it becomes. You can still use the #SLTchat hashtag. Thank you to everyone who has contributed over the years. ♥️

Best wishes to all schools when examination results are published tomorrow. Despite what league tables and Ofsted say, we know you have all worked hard… #SLTchat #gcses2022 #gcseresultsday2022
So results are in and show that 4/5 schools are in trouble and less than 7% are in surplus Please do share the results widely colleagues as this has to get traction.

Education has finally surfaced as an issue in the Tory leadership contest. It's a pity that it completely misses the point. A quick reflection:
Education research isn't meant to dictate the way you teach. It's meant to give you a statistical advantage when deciding what to do with your limited hours. You can't test out every idea yourself, so stand on the shoulders of giants, don't reinvent the wheel.
Amazing how the grammar school announcements make lots of the mainstream media outlets excited but telling them that funding is being stripped away from children hardly gets a mention! Anyone would think these things were deliberate!
Just finished @BreneBrown 'Dare to Lead' & here are 12 key takeaways for me. And thanks to @ThePiXLNetwork for the copy! @WomenEd @DiverseEd2020 @SLTchat

Happy New Year 2023! We know things are tough for schools + colleges right now; being a leader is equally (rewarding +) challenging. We are proud of #SLTchat hashtag and its impact on the teaching community since 2011. The hashtag forum continues to thrive ...
@tombennett71 All of this may be true, but we've heard what he has said and how he has behaved since elected. It is for these reasons I think he is a poor choice. Tbf they don't have an awful lot of options, seems like most of them have had the job at some point in the last few months.
Good luck to all students awaiting GCSE results tomorrow🤞 Well done to the: - teachers & support staff who’ve got the students to this point from EYFS-y11 - MATs/LAs, GBs, HTs & SLT who’ve led the way - exams officers who’ve already worked hard to download #gcseresults2022
@chrishildrew @SLTchat Really good example! Thank you 🙏
@MarkWest_Teach @SLTchat Great question! Yes, absolutely a school could consider that - case in point would be in the link below. How? Full engagement with the school community and governors, clear reasoning, lots of communication. Done well, it can be transformative. bbc.co.uk/news/uk-englan…
@chrishildrew @SLTchat I did have a question @chrishildrew but there wasn’t time. You said you are just a ‘custodian’ of the school with a history reaching beyond us all. I really like that sentiment and also legal truth. Therefore, could/should a school ever consider changing their emblem? @SLTchat
Great conversation with @SLTchat today. x.com/i/spaces/1dxxy… #SLTchat Thank you for creating this spaces.
@SLTchat @TwitterSpaces @chrishildrew @kojosappong @AshidAli786 @Suzanne20433725 @sgascoyne1 well worth a listen. 👌🏼
@nicksnook @SLTchat Glad you enjoyed it. I’m buzzing now!
@chrishildrew @SLTchat I loved listening to you speaking about your school. I’ve never seen vertical tutoring done well so it was really interesting hearing you say that it is part of your cultural identity as a school 😊
Really interesting conversation on @SLTchat tonight. Great hearing @chrishildrew talk about culture and the importance of it. Loved the spine analogy especially #leadership
Thanks to @SLTchat @MrsSpalding @chrishildrew for a Monday night reminder about how school culture trumps everything else
Find the ‘voice’ of the school. What makes it unique and special? Articulate the vision repeatedly and relentlessly @chrishildrew #SLTchat
Reelly enjoyed listening in to tonight @SLTchat with @chrishildrew talking about #culture...lots to think about now! Thanks 🙏 #SLTchat x.com/i/spaces/1dxxy…
This was great fun to do - hope listeners found it useful.
