Why Are Teachers So Tired All The Time? 😴 Research shows we make about 1,500 decisions a day! The constant requirement to ‘be on’ becomes DRAINING to our brains and bodies. It is called ‘Decision Fatigue’. This explains a lot!

I've been contemplating doing this for the last few years. When I first qualified, I would do timed assessments alongside GCSE classes and then use my answers as models. Really helped me understand misconceptions and struggles.

Basic MP salary in 2010: £65,738 Basic MP salary in 2023: £86,584 Undoubtedly, if doctors, nurses, radiographers, teachers, rail workers etc would’ve had a similar increase there wouldn’t be a sniff of a strike. Interesting priorities.

Huge, exciting changes for me next term. It's been such a roller coaster of a year and I am drained. Time to recharge, finish my NASENCO and give my babies lots of cuddles before we embark on preschool for eldest in September....

Such a powerful talk by @theblackdyslexic about lived experiences of being black and dyslexic in our education system. Lots of food for thought.

The 3 bank holidays this month have effectively been a trial run of a 4 day workweek in the UK. What are the results? Incredible national happiness, a surge in demand and economic activity. No negative impact on productivity. A breath of fresh air for creativity, rest and love.

Sometimes I want to shout "IT'S NORMAL TO FIND THINGS HARD, THAT'S NOT A REASON NOT TO TRY!" at the top of my lungs. Some of my 10s are so reluctant to try things that aren't immediately easy and it's exhausting trying to convince them to try just a little bit of the tricky bits

Brilliant to be out as a team on a "lunch & learning" visit to the #communityowned Red Lion, Northmoor. Meeting the chair, Graham & publican, Lisa provided great insight on what it is to be a #combiz & how they're managing in these challenging times. #MoreThanAPub

Given the national conversation about Ofsted single-word judgements this is not just a local story. It is about parent choice and having a say in your children's education. They have already had so much disruption due to Covid and they are now facing another massive upheaval.

@MonicaHesse Asset prices fell dramatically from 1966 to 1982. The Dow Jones fell, in nominal terms, from 1,100 to 800, which doesn’t sound too bad till you remember the 1970s saw double digit inflation, and so adjusting for inflation the crash was 80%, astounding compared to the 75% crash of…

Reminder - these students are in schools and classrooms. This is what some female teachers have to deal with most days in the same way these female PCSOs had to. But still so many who would blame a school for excluding them to safeguard teachers + kids. bbc.co.uk/news/uk-englan…
