Sober reading regarding ITT next ac year. If fears are true this will be further compounded by even poorer retention figures.

Very true 👍
Great news. Personally I enjoyed many freedoms, as did many of my friends, during my 20s from being part of the EU. BBC News - EU proposes some free movement for UK young people bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politi…
So, excessive internet use, lack of sleep & low parental trust are key factors in school absence. Not depression & anxiety which just might have a similar impact on relationships, sleep, isolation & seeking connection online. Sort yourselves out, parents. tinyurl.com/4vn23b9p

I'm not a researcher but this seems much more grounded in reality compared to other arguments put forward re motivation/learning/behaviour.

Delegating isn't about expecting clones of yourself; it's about empowering others to excel in their own way, fostering teamwork and progress.
Students shouldn't be the only reason a teacher stays. Few leave a school where they feel support, encouragement, praise, and appreciation, which create a culture where the whole staff can thrive.
Wow. That is actually quite amazing. 😅

No surprise. They're pretty clinical, soulless places with often young and inexperienced SLT. Too many egos in the room all fighting to promote their 'vision' and the latest 'fad'. Leads to extreme toxicity and in fighting. Kids lose out in the end.

In three words... What's happening tonight? 🔮 #UCL
The education sector needs massive reform and proper focus, starting from the top. The proposed 'propaganda parade' is lazy, ill-thought and a slap in the face for front-line educators.

“Sleep is a scam invented by bed companies to sell more mattresses.”
I'm for RP, IF done correctly. Too often schools roll out a blanket RP strategy, give one CPD session, and then pass over all responsibility to frontline staff. IF done in unison with other strategies, correct CPD, and ammendments to teachers' workload then fine.

@johncosgrove405 The biggest cause of lost time is the majority waiting for a disruptive child to stop sabotaging the lesson.
@WhistleblowingT Not if your last few tweets are anything to go by.🤪
Teacher: Plans a great hands-on, fun lesson! Student: Slept for 2 hours the night prior because they’re addicted to TikTok Administrator: Comes in and notices uninterested, tired student and comments ‘’What do you think you can do for that student to make them more interested?”
@naomicfisher I started with good intentions. After realising that me just telling them to do their homework was not enough I started issuing detentions. From 1/3 doing their homework to only one or 2 forgetting to do it, I call that improvement. Detention is a deterrent.
My fixed term contract (maternity cover) as a MFL teacher development lead on both an ITT & ECF course, is coming to the end. I’m a former HoD MFL. Looking for ITT/ECT lead type roles for providers or Trusts/SCITTs, or MFL lead type roles for Trusts. Any leads, let me know! 🔎
We are teaching in an age where accountability has been shifted almost entirely from students/parents to TEACHERS.
When society no longer respects teachers, students won't respect them, and soon there will be no teachers, leaving a void in education that will compromise the very future of society.
@DrBradJohnson Unfortunately, it appears we are at that point now in many areas.
@naomicfisher Do they have smartphones? At what age were they allowed access to handheld screens?
The government need to get a serious grip, the behaviour of some parents and children is beyond foul and schools are expected to stick a wet paper towel on the problem. The situation is only getting worse and no one is taking responsibility for tackling it.walesonline.co.uk/news/wales-new…
@profprofMFL I would ask if there’s an opportunity to review the decision together. If it’s a hard no, then you’ll have to decide to stay and let be or move to a school that embraces what you bring. If you’re on the wrong bus there’s no point asking the driver to go your way
State testing days should be early dismissal days.
@FixingEducation How about a gradual erosion of the independence/autonomy they once enjoyed? The quest for data brings everyone closer to being an "educational program implementation specialist" than what teachers were a generation or two ago.
WHY ARE TEACHERS LEAVING THE PROFESSION? •Lack of support •Class sizes •They are worked to the bone •Low salaries •Their time isn’t respected •Better opportunities elsewhere •Inadequate preparation for new teachers •Little to no student/parent accountability DO BETTER!
@unleashing_me Totally agree, we simply can't carry on as we are. The education profession needs to drag itself into the 21st century in its approach to retention (ie wellbeing) and recruitment strategies. It's not a money thing, it's about people wanting different things now.
Times up I think. Fed up of being treated so negatively all the time. Never any positives. Never any appreciation for hard work. Nothing. Resignation written. Time to look at alternative jobs outside of education
@crav_mfl @Dazzalee127320 Yes and tbf, my school did offer good flex (was paid 0.8 for teaching & 1.0 for TLR, had my full PPA/TLR time, one day off & 2 late starts). As I also said, policies were in place to have excellent behaviour & good workload. Couldn’t fault the school. Loved working there. But…½
@Dazzalee127320 …is flexible working and the demand of the role. For me ‘demand’ isn’t workload, I worked in a great school with decent workload in terms of quantity. But the job was still very demanding & exhausting leaving little energy for good quality of life. We need to fix that. 2/2
