Just spotted this part time (0.6) trust based senior role. So rare to see p/t options at trust level and this is a refreshing and rare opportunity. If you're secondary and after a p/t senior role, this is a bit of a unicorn of a job!
Giveaway! I was lucky to be sent an extra copy of “Ferris” by #KateDiCamillo from @WalkerBooksUK It is a truly lovely family story, rich in character and love. It made me smile and laugh and cry in equal measure. Fantastic writing. If you want a chance to win Like and Repost
Latest book and now the lead book with case studies and chapter by chapter explorations. Thanks to all the participating schools. amazon.co.uk/Opening-Doors-…
There are lots of inspiring school leaders who care deeply about providing the best learning experience for their kids, there are also some amazing experts out there in child dev., SEND, psychology... Reflective practitioners listen & are open to learning. It's not that hard!
When my English Lead & I spoke to @MuchAdoALJ last, he thought you ought to rebrand as 'breaking doors down' to get this message into as many schools as possible! I can't recommend these approaches highly enough & the Opening Doors community you can become part of!

@tombennett71 Some brilliant people working in AP have a voice in our new book, AP Huh. It's humbling to read. They do phenomenal work. "Alternative Provision Huh" amzn.eu/d/hFhgmva Mainstream can't meet the needs of some children, whereas AP can. It's time to think differently about AP.
Joyful day starting with rich & inspiring discussions about our Opening Doors journey with @MuchAdoALJ followed by poetry performances in Year 6. I'm buzzing! @BobCox_SFE
I hope @CharteredColl members have had time to watch the oracy in primary schools webinar with the inspiring @voice21oracy @creativeHigg @hydeh_rose I'm definitely stealing 'messy talk'! Some great advice for schools here embarking on this journey/wanting to sharpen things up 🤗
The curriculum is knowledge rich AND dialogic. They have done what all good professionals do; a carefully curated mix of great resources... Talk for writing @PieCorbett ❤️ And Opening Doors @BobCox_SFE ❤️
"How can we develop pupils’ vocabulary?...What they really need is exposure to & encounters with a rich range of material across the curriculum that will both provide background knowledge & develop their vocabulary" suggests @MaryMyatt
@smithsmm Hard agree. The idea that Ofsted can ask an inevitably tiny sample of kids what they remember from an aspect of previous teaching and that this can provide a meaningful data-point in judging the quality of a school is almost as silly as graded lesson observations. >>
Latest review with thanks! 🍦
🧵Oracy. One of the three prime areas in EYFS is communication and language. It's a prime area because it's fundamental to success both academically and generally. This doesn't diminish as children move through key stages.
or you think they're doing brilliantly, or you've noticed a real uptick in their work lately. In the focus on the minutiae of the precision of feedback, it can be easy to lose the appreciation of the sum of the parts, which is often the greatest part of all.
🧵Reading lots of research on feedback. All perfectly sensible and right with a focus on feedback moving learning on & being precise. But there's often a gaping hole in the research for me & that's the need to tell chn sometimes that you're just generally really proud of them
Read this gem over the break to my kiddies, we absolutely love Kate DiCamillo books, totally encapsulating, rich vocabulary & I just love the character names too! This would make a great WCR for LKS2 🤩
So, as you may have seen today, an advert for a reboot of a children's book branded a disability as 'disgusting'. Plenty of discourse already about why this is awful, so rather than add more here's a thread of some books with excellent representation that you could enjoy instead.
I’ve gained a fair few followers off the back of my adaptive teaching blog. If you haven’t read other blogs I’ve written, here are a few you might find interesting
If you were in charge of how schools were funded, how would you organise it? (Apart from by increasing it obviously!) Is the current model equitable? What things would help ensure all schools had regularly updated quality literature, curriculum resources, IT...? @Headteacherchat

If you're secondary and after a p/t senior role, this is a bit of a unicorn of a job!
Giveaway! I was lucky to be sent an extra copy of “Ferris” by #KateDiCamillo from @WalkerBooksUK It is a truly lovely family story, rich in character and love. It made me smile and laugh and cry in equal measure. Fantastic writing. If you want a chance to win Like and Repost
I really think that Ofsted needs to have different frameworks for primary and secondary. I think at secondary it isn’t unreasonable to expect subjects to be able to explain what they do and why. At primary things work very differently and should be inspected differently.
Speaking at the @NAHTnews conference, Sir Martyn Oliver has announced a change to our ungraded inspections of schools. From September, they will no longer include deep dives. #OfstedBigListen #NAHTconf
@MichaelT1979 “Inspectors will use ‘extended learning walks” Feels like we could be 2 degrees away from the 2010s graded drop-ins.
@primarypete_ I just don't know that there's time to do everything in such a short time
A key question on this is whether this just signals a shift from a focus on deep dives to a focus back on data

The removal of deep dives from ungraded inspections possibly a step in the right direction, maybe indicative of positive change, but honestly the quickest way to get people on side is surely to announce you will have separate frameworks for prim, sec, small schools, special etc.
Some of my schools have only two or three staff members in total, including the headteacher. Deep dive removal will be hugely welcome in these settings as these staff members often lead over half a dozen subjects/areas each plus FT teaching.

This is the report we celebrated with @CharteredColl Fellows at @UKHouseofLords and the same report @AlisonMPeacock introduced at our panel event on professionalism @WCoEducators at Guildhall @cityoflondon - brilliant work 👏👏👏

@schooltruth I can’t believe how much national press this is getting. Well, I imagine journalist contacts help.. When large university providers and outstanding SCITTs lost their ability to train teachers under the shameful ITT market review process, where were the press commentators?
@DeputyGrocott There’s a difference between grammar teaching based on learning to identify grammatical features and grammar teaching that helps you use different syntactical structures with control and ultimately choice. The latter aids creativity.
Exactly what my keynote was about on Saturday. Couldn't agree more
What we actually need is experienced teachers and leaders. And we are losing far too many of them. Filling these experience gaps with new, or temporary teachers and TAs isn’t good enough, especially when gaps just keeping getting wider.

'Last year, nearly 9,000 women aged 30 to 39 exited the profession. Many of them held over a decade of experience in middle or senior leadership roles' 🤰@AnnaCMcShane buff.ly/3WhRrVe
Bribing children to read with rewards and keeping them in at break for not reading at home won't help them discover the joy of reading. Sharing stories as a class, dedicating time to read, talking about books together, enjoying poetry and being a reading role model will.
@ShellyGeeson Yes I think this sums up the situation for me. 😔
Delivered an online staff meeting last week around building reading cultures in classrooms, with lots of practical ideas and tips (plus some research). The link is here if anyone wants to use it as a starting point. Hopefully, it's useful to people. padlet.com/Jon_Biddle/rea…
If we're generally agreed that teaching is a *mix* of art, craft and science, why does the art/craft bit seem to get way less focus? (And none at all from Ofsted/the DfE.)
@ShellyGeeson @MuchAdoALJ That’s got us thinking! Thank you!
