Another day, another visitor… this time the returning @iamkingkimba. Our Year 7s and 10s were inspired by Kimba’s anecdotes and they all drafted their own metaphor-fuelled poems. Thank you!

I have two copies of The Visualiser Handbook to give away. This is for busy teachers who need concise clarity to make live modelling an effect part of their practice ASAP. To enter, follow, like and retweet this post and I will draw winners at random on the 18th July.

Another Literature paper and another set of students who are gutted that their TikTok Teachers’ predictions are false. How do we stop students from listening to that nonsense?!

What do children learn in history in schools? What modules do they actually take at GCSE and A-Level? All this, and more, in a new report for @Policy_Exchange by Zachary Marsh and me, published today. Chart below: % state secondary schools teaching the following in KS3.

Handwriting bias is a real problem. Some essays are really hard to read & get lower marks as a result. Our latest feature lets you toggle between the original handwritten script & a transcription.

Can a teaching and learning lead ever know all the different subject-specific pedagogical practices? Or how would they develop their understanding of these?

NEW ‘Power and Conflict - The Interpretations’ revision booklet. I always get my students to consider 3 interpretations of each poem and ask them to consider which they agree with the most. It’s a great springboard for debate and considering new ideas. I have collated these into…

Question all… We all place our low scoring students into interventions, but what do we do for our readers with high reading data? #NGRT #literacy @FunkyPedagogy

My email to staff was greatly received today 📧 🗣️“This is possibly the best email I’ve every received!” If you want to create a classroom which inspires children and one which you can be proud of, then you’ve got to invest time and money into it the same as everything else!

I'm looking at running a CPD for all staff based on use of a visualiser. In English we use these a lot and understand how beneficial they are for modelling/feedback/general teaching and learning. Does anybody have any examples of how they're used effectively cross-curricular?

Speaking and Listening… at what point in your GCSE curriculum does this fit? Why did you place there? Does it work where you’ve placed it? #teamenglish

A BIG focus now is on the application of AO3. Our students love a history essay. We’re breaking down the four main elements of context for Macbeth and examining key extracts to see where the context is implicit. Working beautifully.
