Inspired to write my first blog in three years. Thinking about behaviour culture and why compliance can only ever take us so far. Walking round our school (admittedly primary) and seeing that being part of something more all around. It’s not by accident. https://t.co/0VMqmf2GUA 2.9K views · 22 likes · 7 reposts · 3 replies Open on X →

Practically all of it. In primary, feedback works best when it's immediate. A quick intervention, explanation, or question in the moment has far more impact than pages of written comments. 5.6K views · 63 likes · 3 reposts · 1 replies Open on X →

If you're genuinely committed to evidence-informed teaching, then disagreement should be met with evidence, not insults. Labelling opponents "charlatans" and "hobbyists" feels less like scientific inquiry and more like tribalism dressed up as rigour. 4.6K views · 66 likes · 10 reposts · 7 replies Open on X →

If schools or inspectors look only for written evidence of feedback, how much effective assessment do their quality-assurance systems miss? 19K views · 10 likes · 1 reposts · 1 replies Open on X →

The Tubs' #HardLife is pure joy. A gloriously hook-laden blast of guitar pop that marries the melodic fury with jangle, heart and choruses that seem to arrive every 30 seconds. Sharp, funny, bruised and endlessly catchy. My album of the year! A self- loathing riot. https://t.co/Y

From @tombennett71's foreword: "It is a duty upon us to use the best teaching strategies we can. This is too important to leave to the mixed-methods charlatans and literacy hobbyists." https://t.co/DhCglS4vZ5

Just updated this post to include all my picturebook recommendation links. It has 3 lists for Year 3-6. A picturebook biography list and list of picturebooks bout loss. Hope it’s useful. https://t.co/hlAlJ7Nz1K 0 views · 779 likes · 190 reposts · 46 replies Open on X →
