I have thoroughly enjoyed mentoring XXXX this academic year and have seen huge growth in her teaching and professionalism. I am going to really miss having her with me when she leaves at the end of this term as  she has been a true asset to my class.

Mandela Day is an annual global celebration to honour the life and legacy of Nelson Mandela. This day is a call to action to take time to reflect on Mandela's values and principles and to make a positive impact in their own communities.

Retweeted a couple of QTs of this without reading the article. So to be clear: This isn't true. The quoted text refers to Conservative guidance released in May last year.

The new Labour guidance removes the age requirements for certain subjects. The article makes no mention of its policy on gender.

two pages from This Week: Science & Nature - showing an activity to use Machine Learning for Kids to learn about speech recognition

It's always a nice surprise when I see Machine Learning for Kids pop up somewhere new

Just learned that "This Week (Science + Nature)" sciencenature.theweekjunior.co.uk adapted one of my projects from machinelearningforkids.co.uk/worksheets into a double-page activity spread - this looks great!

I love watching Reception children race on Sports Day. They start off in eight lanes. Twenty seconds later, they're all running in one lane, two of them have sat down to look at a ladybird, one has stopped to wave to their big brother, one has lost both their shoes and one has started dancing.

A fantastic master class in psychology of language by Stephen Pinker, especially suitable undergraduate psych& child development students& trainee teachers. Also, teachers using Lemovian TLAC strategies: this clearly explains why these only induce superficial learning: Semantics matter-a lot.

Professor Becky Francis being questioned by the education committee about the curriculum and assessment review. She's asked what form her final report will take

'We won't be creating programmes of study and so forth,' she says, but final report is coming in autumn
