I’m expecting schools to be putting in Prevent referrals for any of their children on these “protests”. Not showing British Values. I expect parents to be contacted by social services teams. But that’s not what will happen.

My definition of a great teacher? Stop this endless expectation of ‘better’. A great teacher works well enough to ensure students in each class they teach learn well over time. That each individual they teach feels valued. That each colleague they have is glad they work with them

As SATs week gets closer, what’s happening in year 6 classrooms? Our new research shows pupils and teachers feeling the pressure of the government tests. SATs don’t help teachers or children. Time for a change ➡️ tinyurl.com/manifestomp @TeacherTapp

So why are parents so upset and angry about the @educationgovuk attendance campaign? It’s because it reveals how the DfE thinks about parents of children who are struggling to attend school, and shows how very little they understand of the causes of school attendance…

@RogersHistory The pain and anguish Ruth Perry went through between the inspection in November and her death in January is immeasurable and simply too distressing to contemplate. RIP Ruth, your legacy and mame will never be forgotten.
