Last minute question for tonight @lewisgoodall.com and @maitlis.bsky.social - why are the Tory party allowed to say (and often agreed with by Bridget Phillipson) that they had a good record on education over the last 13 years, when the reality on the ground is things haven't got much better at all?

Proud moment today awarding Lucca, our school dog, her Therapy Dog accreditation. She has had such an impact on our school community.

How to improve 'Thinking time.'
Rather than saying "think of your answer," train your children that when you point at your brain, it means here is your thinking time, get ready to answer. Reduce cognitive load and unnecessary instructions to leave more space for hard thinking and learning.

Tomorrow we're looking at strategies for promoting 100% engagement in the classroom - again, small tweaks, but massive impact on attention and learning.

Had a brilliant staff CPD session last week on 'Captivating Communication' - essentially, it was all about how we use our voice to harness children's attention. It's amazing how tiny adjustments can make such a difference!

@lewisgoodall.com I know you have MUCH bigger fish to fry, but if you fancy doing some of your excellent investigative journalism into the state of our house market and process, that'd be GRAND.

Someone pulled out of our house chain today 1 week before signing contracts. 5 months down the drain. Thousands of pounds lost. So much time, energy and money wasted. The UK housing market desperately needs reform @teamlabouruk.bsky.social

Controversial take, but I don't think Charlotte has "played" and "acted" that well. She's JUST become a traitor. She's done 1 thing - betray the sitting traitor. Not that great a game. She earned her loyalty as a faithful. That's easy. Minah deserves the credit.

Just rewatched #Wicked. Even 2nd time round, it was just as stunning, just as emotional, and just as powerful. Honestly love every second of that film.

Came to school this morning to find our milk delivery had been stolen. Outrageous I know. And no, it wasn't Maggie Thatcher. Although funnily enough, the CCTV showed it was an elderly lady around 85 years old 🤔
Could it be?...

Once again, credit to @lewisgoodall.com and @maitlis.bsky.social, this episode is one of the most insightful pieces of journalism I've heard in a long time.

VD: “As a result of some of Elon Musk’s tweets, the threat to you has gone up?”

JP: “Yes...”

@vicderbyshire.bsky.social speaks to Jess Phillips about Elon Musk’s attacks about her response to grooming gangs in the UK, adding his comments are “endangering” her.

That #strictly final was TV at its absolute best tonight. Emotional. Joyful. Uplifting. Could just watch it all back again.

Taught our Y5s all about Homer and The Iliad this week. The shock when Achilles murdered Hector and then dragged his body around Troy on the back of his chariot was epic. Got to treasure those moments.

We have a Skills Workshop for parents at school this morning. What things do you think are a must to cover?

This is well worth a listen. Intelligent, thought-provoking discussion by @lewisgoodall.com and Kim Leadbeater on the assisted dying bill. So refreshing to hear things respectfully debated and not reduced to binary soundbites.

It's amazing how much shouting out can change a classroom dynamic. Not only does it disrupt the flow of learning, but it slowly eats away at the culture of dignity and respect that you work so hard to achieve. And yet, it's so surprising how often it's allowed. What you permit you promote.

I just turned on the car and Last Christmas was playing on the Radio. Absolutely not OK.
