A successful ALLSCIOW re-launch at So'ton Uni. 17 in attendance, including one from the Isle of Wight. Thought-provoking presentations, high quality discussion and networking.

Hence my predicament!

We've been calling for this for years!

MFL teachers, what are you buying your brilliant foreign language assistants as a leaving gift? So far, we have a book of British slang... #mflbluesky #mfltwitterati #edusky #mfledusky

Entering on behalf of my English team who aren't on here but would love this, following a great chat we had about diversifying the curriculum yesterday!

New anxiety unlocked... 🔓😳

Very jealous of everyone heading to #ALLLanguageWorld this weekend. Hoping to follow lots on here? @all-languages.org.uk

It has been A MONTH OF A DAY.

Really exciting to be meeting with Greg Horton and Kathryn Broom this morning to plan our first Allsciow ALL event for the summer! If you're in/nr to Hampshire or on the Isle of Wight, watch this space! #mfltwitterati #mflbluesky #Edusky

This will be a useful read for my ITT cohort, thank you!

It's not bad! I'm the same with celeb authors but given his background in law I thought it would be interesting and I enjoyed it. There's a few more in the series I think. I'm now onto a Cecelia Ahern one.

Book 3 of 2025: The Trial by Rob Rinder

An easy half term read, a classic 'whodunnit'. I enjoyed the legal insights and always enjoy a mystery!

Right... Spring 2, let's be having you! ⛈️

🇪🇸 Have already re-written our Year 7 scheme of work this morning. Favourite bit of the job is writing curriculum and assessments, I can sometimes always manage to put jobs like this right to the top of the to-do list.

I think I'd be inclined to hang up on them!

A beautifully written account of a couple walking the South West Coast Path.

I thought this was excellent. A real demonstration of experience in classroom practice. I'm ITT Lead so it's these little tiny things I often notice are missing, and it's sometimes hard to explain how something so subtle can make a lesson run more smoothly. Thanks for sharing!

Brilliant, thank you. I'll send it round now.

This sounds great, I will share it with our RSLs!

Excellent training last night from Hampshire Governor Services, looking at complaints. A troubling sign of the times that we face ever more complaints from parents. A system that is creaking under the pressure and teams of wonderful people doing their very best for our children. #ukedgovs #govchat

@unisouthampton.bsky.social if you have any contacts at Avenue Campus for MFL outreach for a local secondary school, we'd love to get involved!

Do any of the #mfltwitterati know if the University of Southampton still offer outreach trips for MFL students? I can't find up to date contact details... #edusky #mfl #mflsky #mfledu

Book 1 of 2025 was The Life Impossible by Matt Haig.

Ibiza has a special place in my heart. An enjoyable read, even if I did have to suspend belief for a while which is not in my usual taste of genre.

There are currently two members of staff at my school who I could have taught. Fortunately neither were in my class but we were all there at the same time... It's getting closer!

Yep, no official language. Just checked.

Vaguely remember this from uni. I think that's right. Going to Google!

Wait... What?!!!!!!

How many Spanish speakers in US?! 😶

Man! I'm sticking it on in the morning, I look forward to finding out more...!
