If pupils feel they can be rude to staff and/or swear at them without any real sanctions these behaviours snowball & become the social norm. For staff it basically says they’re not valued if the school’s response is inert.
At this point, I have not a moment’s hesitation. My advice to that teacher would be to get out of that school.

Just been messaged from a Scottish teacher who was attacked with a weapon in the classroom, and the student wasn’t suspended, and is still in the same school as the teacher, who now lives in fear of a second assault. Tell me again that the Scottish Ed system doesn’t need its…
I have an idea to interview teachers in my school about how they physically get the job done. How do they assign seats? Hand out books, pens etc. Check everyone is on task. All those useful things nobody tells you on your PGDE. Can you help? How are you #GettingTeachingDone?
I have so much admiration for the achievements at Michaela Community School in Wembley. Students there are safe, successful, and learn in dignity. They get an education that people would pay thousands for, for free. Families that send their children there know their children are…

Sanity and common-sense prevail. Many congratulations Katharine Birbalsingh @Miss_Snuffy 👏
Imagine a world where hardly anyone wants to work in schools. Then imagine how those who do might feel when they are told by those who don't want to that they are doing it wrong & all they want is to control young people. Which isn't true. What a time to be alive.
Anyone who has worked as a teacher, in actual schools, for any amount of time, knows that teenagers will be teenagers (and that’s great) and that they actually *LIKE* having rules and boundaries - seriously they do. They want adults who are in charge. They want that security.

PARENTS! Under 10? Read WITH them, 15-30 mins a day until they can do it on their own. Draw your finger under the words. Immerse them in books. No screens. Eventually books will be their go-to for entertainment. Put the time in now for immense reward later. ✊🏾

@Schreiberland I went to the funeral of a friend when they began eulogies. I asked the widow if I could say a word and she obliged. I went to the podium and said,"Plethora". As I stepped down, the widow told me,"Thank you. That meant a lot."
@adamboxer1 All poor behaviour affects the learning of all students?
Some ideas from “the hallmark calendar school of thought” 🤪 @tombennett71 predictably amazing at #rEDBrum
ResearchEd has done more to improve classroom practice and outcomes for children since it started than every university's education department combined.
‘People who are banned from driving frequently demonstrate low levels of driving ability. We recommend judges look at ways to reduce bans in order to improve the driving outcomes for drivers at risk of being banned.’
I’ve definitely found it faster to mark essays by using comparative marking. Using an empty classroom I read each essay then put them onto either the top middle or bottom row. Then I read across the row putting them into an order from best to worst. Then…
@ModestTeacher @TheReelRandom I know a secret. If you take the phone away from a 13yo girl who was always up to her eye balls in drama and floundering grades life gets better for everyone, especially her! And she is aware that she won’t have it again until she’s at least 15 and she seems resigned to it

@erichhartmann Not wrong. Everything I search for results in a page or two of wokesplaining the issue for me.
Having travelled the world & lived in other countries, one thing that's become clear is the BBC pisses all over every other national broadcaster in both news & entertainment, is why it's so respected globally. UK 'patriots' who slate it for 'wokeness' simply haven't got a clue.
So the teacher has now been texting about this since around 10AM. “Who the hell” is teaching the kids whilst she texts?
Yes, book submitted to John Catt and figuring out the cover/back/dedication etc!
@C_Hendrick @rpondiscio @MrZachG And he wrote a book too. Show off.
”A rigorous study involving more than 2,000 students has found that children who got a content-rich, knowledge-building curriculum for at least four years, beginning in kindergarten, significantly outperformed their peers on standardized reading comprehension tests...'' 1/2
”All reading comprehension tests are really “knowledge tests in disguise.” Prof. Willingham.
@anon_opin Christopher Lambert in Highlander nailed the accent.
How to destroy the confidence of a young pupil in the UK. Give her a national test and tell her everything she did is wrong. And now, in the UK, with phonics dominating everything, no one really knows how to teach spelling!
PLC: planning lessons for Romeo and Juliet. Instructional Coach: but yall are still leveraging the first 10 min of class w/ reading of independent student-choice books, right? PLC: um.. Instructional coach: you should have your Ss transferring skills to independent reading.
@naomicfisher @Miss_Snuffy Don’t know but she is rather successful at helping inner city kids excel. x.com/miss_snuffy/st…
Why Harris is excellent at turning around failing schools: they care about the details. Keep uniform standards high & kids can rebel by pulling ties down instead of carrying knives. This isn’t petty. It is crucial for a school to be successful in the inner city.
Until the political left sharply reverses their stance on both the treatment of Jews on our streets and campuses and their policies regarding "trans" kids, I will never vote for them again. I'm a lifelong democrat who became independent in the 2020 elections. Never again.
@MrDanielBuck Ah, but in public schools even the pre-K kids have to know PRONOUNS.
Just finished another tour of a classical school. First graders who knew their parts of speech. I’ve seen high school classrooms where kids don’t know the difference between a noun and a verb. Classical education gives me hope
@OliverRMills Pretty sure you can remove “private” from that paragraph. They weren’t solely responsible for the four-fold increase in A-grades.
Remember during lockdown when we couldn't have exams so schools got to decide what grades their pupils got and every private school in the country just went, "Fuck it. A's for everyone then."
@TelescopeGlobe Bad behaviour is indeed a bit of a tradition in Scottish schools, nowadays, yes.
Here's the thing about teacher appreciation week. If your staff already feels appreciated, you don't need it. If the teachers don't feel appreciated to begin with, and feel downright disrespected on a daily basis, then no amount of jeans passes will change that
Is it going to be public knowledge which teachers are carrying their guns to school? I can't be the only parent who would want my kid out of that class immediately
@TelescopeGlobe @norchcity The problem is Fisher doesn't really engage in debate. In terms of Birbalsingh vs Fisher. It's no contest. KB is an experienced school principal who currently heads a miraculously successful school. What does Fisher do except try and destroy an important institution?
She's quite right you know. I demand to see exclusion rates for the indigenous people of Britain. Anyone have anything for descendants of Norman, Saxon, Jutes, Celtic, Pictish, and the Beaker people?
This has actually made my day! 😅 BLOCKED by Tom, who is unwilling to engage with the questions I have for him about his behaviour management 'expertise' in relation to #inclusion, #trauma, #Indigenous needs etc. Scared to take me on then eh, Tom? 😂 #TomBennett
