Reading this in preparation for Helen Peters’ visit to us in September. It’s brilliant and I can’t wait to share it with our pupils. Her Jasmine Green series will appeal to our younger pupils too. They all LOVE an author visit 🤩

I don’t ‘love’ maths but I do love discovering new ways of teaching tricky concepts. Method A will make long division so much easier for lots of my pupils 👌

Thanks for this, going to use method a at school for sure 👌

Have you read Fresh Water for Flowers? That’s a brilliant book 👌

Very, thank you Mary 😊👌

I hope you get as much out of it as I am 😊👌

What a fantastic book this is…instantly engaging and focused on the important stuff…how leaders can make their schools and everyone within them (pupils and teachers) thrive👌
I know it’s one I’ll come back to time and time again.

100% 👌

I grew up in Battle. I never took the view of the Abbey for granted…felt magical, especially at Christmas with the lights. Now I live in Arundel…must need an historic monument in a town before it feels like home 🤣

Love my new B5 notebook from The Positive Teacher Company. Didn’t need it, wasn’t going to get one, but I love this design so much - probably my favourite of theirs so far. The size is 👌too.

Hi! 😊

Yep, the infant school next door is part of our academy too 😊

Hi Toria, no, Orchards. You’re at Durrington High aren’t you?

Hi, I’m a new DHT in Worthing, West Sussex. English lead and going to be leading Teaching and Learning across the school from September. Excited and nervous but really looking forward to the next stage in my career. I’ll still be teaching year 5 for two days a week too👌😊

I felt the same. The other two hit me just as hard as well!

I’m getting worried that I’m running out! Also read this which is wonderful

Working my way through Kristin Hannah’s books this summer. Not sure why I haven’t read any of hers before…
I loved The Great Alone, The Women and The Nightingale. Halfway through The Winter Garden which hasn’t captivated me like the others but I’m invested. She’s a wonderful storyteller 👌
