Is anyone else self-policing or is it just me?

‘I’m earning half the salary now but I couldn’t face being a teacher any more’ Burnt-out teachers buckling under the heavy workload culture find ways to use their skills without the stress

Unfortunately a sign of the times. I absolutely loved teaching but realised after nearly two decades, that it was no longer sustainable.

Not sure how the government can fix this.

Really enjoying Bluesky but could do without the new female bots that are popping up.

Thrilled to say that I have passed my NPQH delivered by @ambitioninstitute.bsky.social
Learning I will definitely take with me, as I move on to my next chapter.

It’s time for change. We need to act now.

Email your local MP using our quick online tool and get Government to sit up and listen and end the teacher mental health crisis.

Just two minutes of your time, to create lasting change to thousands of educators.

- 38% below target for secondary overall
- 12 out of 17 subjects below respective targets
- 12% below target in usually-reliable primary

Preparing for the next chapter 🙂

Looking forward to the next instalment @fftedudatalab.bsky.social

Anyway, there’s a lot more to it than that. Report is here 9/10

Dealing with the rising workload of exclusions: sooner and later Emma Knights discusses the key issues of exclusions and what NGA's plans are to cover this important topic.

Interesting - thank you. I know exclusion review panels/appeals is a niche topic, but it's ripe for change. If you're doing more work on exclusions, pls remember it's not only teachers & leaders who are tired www.nga.org.uk/news-views/d...

Intersectionality and Key Stage 5 subject choice - FFT Education Datalab We look at how likely pupils are to progress to study A-Levels, broken down by gender, ethnicity and level of disadvantage.

The article on today's @teachertapp.bsky.social is a very interesting read. Lots of work still needs to be done to tackle inequality.

Teacher Wellbeing Index The Teacher Wellbeing Index details the findings of Education Support’s annual survey into the mental health and wellbeing of teachers and education staff working in the UK

The 2024 Teaching Wellbeing Index from @edsupportuk.bsky.social has new insights on: - how changes in pupil and parent behaviour is affecting staff wellbeing - how the lack of support from public services is affecting educators morale Read the report: bit.ly/3CrircH #TWIX2024

Sometimes, the scariest leaps lead to the greatest growth. Trust the process, embrace the fear, and jump. The net will appear. #TakeTheLeap

Building teams. We shouldn’t ask ‘will they fit in with us?’. We should ask instead, what don’t we currently have? What perspectives and ideas and styles will challenge our thinking, provide different insights, bring divergent views? What voices are we missing?

That’s team building for me.

Always a pleasure x

Just say a post on LinkedIn that said "the truth will lose you money" and I truly felt those words.

The Aspiring Heads summit at the weekend, included many professionals from the education sector who value partnerships to improve outcomes for students. Such a great event.
Shout out to @mrsoliviab.bsky.social and Ethan. I cannot wait for the next one.

Reposting to see if anyone can help x.

Here's what teachers responded yesterday on teachertapp.co.uk

Such a worrying stat. Education staff deserve support but the resources are just not available in many schools.

I have just been exposed! I have 137 unread books and I still keep borrowing more from the library.
My challenge is to read at least three a month. If I read more, I'm allowed to treat myself with another 🤣🤣.

So I'm going to start with this...

Diversity gap in academy trust top jobs fails to narrow Number of black, Asian and minority ethnic (BAME) leaders remains static

Without the right support, this will continue to be a headline.
