In our recent survey, 82.7% of EIS branches stated that there are incidents of ‘violence and aggression’ every week. #SU4QE Read the survey results report in full on the EIS website: eis.org.uk/pupil-behaviou…
"82.7% of branches said there are incidents of ‘violence & aggression’ every week in school." The results of the @EISUnion Survey are striking. They show how much distress & overwhelm & dysregulation exist in our society - and how children and teachers are asked to carry that.

One of the questions just asked of @DrGaborMate at #GaborImmersive23 is “How do we get the doctors to be interested in trauma & listen to us?” I thought of this piece written by GP @mellojonny that I feature in many of my presentations. abetternhs.net/2017/10/15/we-…

We whole heartedly agree, relationships are at the heart of overcoming attendance barriers. But as @CommonsEd have rightly identified, support for MH & SEND must be prioritised. We are grateful to 40 orgs via @SEC_Tweets & 200 orgs via @CYPMentalHealth for joining calls #3Asks.

Thank you for your participation in each of these surveys. Both the data relating to individual members and the collective Branch experience will be critical as we Stand Up for Quality Education, and Stand Up for Better Behaviour together. #StandUp4QualityEdu #SU4QE
Information about the Stand Up for Quality Education campaign has been issued to members this afternoon, with details of how to take part in two important currently running surveys. #StandUp4QualityEdu #SU4QE
My daughter started middle school, and they get 'check marks' for minor behavioral infractions. Her math teacher informed the class they'll get a 'check mark' any time they leave class to use the restroom, so... cut my hair and call me Karen, because oh HELL no
Urgent referrals to CAMHS were 3x higher in May compared to 2019 whilst open referrals undergoing/waiting care hit the highest recorded levels. We stand with Young Minds in calling for a clear Govt plan &commitment to address the root causes. #Endthewait youngminds.org.uk/about-us/media…
In this period of post-pandemic recovery, to support young people who have so much greater need than they did pre-pandemic, we need to see more teachers rather than fewer" -GS Andrea Bradley on STV this week youtu.be/GVSW1LHK9zw

My uncle, John F. Kennedy, was assassinated 60 years ago, yet many of the documents related to his murder have never been declassified. Why are they still being hidden? It’s time the American people knew the truth. #Kennedy24

85K Followers 660 Following The official account of Education Scotland – supporting quality and improvement in Scottish education.What impact does education research have on teachers? Peter Blatchford says it can take the power away, with researchers saying: ‘“We’re the experts, we know what works, you could try this,” without thinking about the incredibly complex task teaching is' tes.com/magazine/teach…
By DM: I can't face going back to work, it's an egg-shell/helicopter parent culture. Children are never in the wrong, I spend more time having 'restorative' conversations then I do actually teaching. Anxiety is through the roof evening thinking about the 8th.
This undermines the profession. It also has a worrying undertone of “we just need teachers…anyone” rather than “we need highly qualified and passionate people to do a very important job”. To get more people into teaching we need to raise its profile, not lower it.
Teachers should be able to qualify without having GCSE maths to help solve the recruitment crisis, the chairman of the Independent Schools Council has said ⬇️ thetimes.co.uk/article/you-sh…
If the @educationgovuk reduce the requirements to become a teacher then I want a refund on my degree if it turns out I didn’t need it.
@GMB All this will lead to is a continuation of high quality staff feeling devalued and those that take up the offer feeling they are working in a stressful, highly accountable job and are paid unqualified wages. Everyone still leaves! Another horrendous idea to solve the issue 😮💨
@GMB This is a distraction from the real issue about recruitment and retention of teachers - that is pay and working conditions. Deal with that.
@GMB To attract more teachers, wouldn’t it be better to pay them properly, reform ofsted and actually respect them!
@GMB My friend is a high school art teacher, the way the school system treats teachers with 6months & 1 year contracts I believe could be a big factor in these recruitment issues. My friend would absolutely love a secure job teaching art for the rest of her career, but being in the…
@GMB Not that it would entirely fix it… But the solution to the secondary school recruitment crisis isn’t to continually hire more teachers, it is to retain the teachers you already have by improving working conditions and culture for teachers So many teachers quit and move to…
"82.7% of branches said there are incidents of ‘violence & aggression’ every week in school." The results of the @EISUnion Survey are striking. They show how much distress & overwhelm & dysregulation exist in our society - and how children and teachers are asked to carry that.
The focus of the first #SU4QE campaign theme is to build the skills and resources to address aggressive pupil behaviour. EIS branches recently completed a survey on their experiences. Our full survey report can be found on the EIS website: eis.org.uk/pupil-behaviou…

@garethkthomas Behaviour nowadays is often written off with excuses. The impact this behaviour has on other pupils’ learning and wellbeing, and staff wellbeing too, is significant. Explain the behaviour and find a solution, yes. But don’t allow it to go without consequence - consistency is key
@garethkthomas Enjoyed the thread. Thank you. The problem is an ever increasing number of ‘bad kids’ (not my phraseology) & with a lack of investment in education & rising costs the pastoral support just isn’t there. Often schools know what to do but have no capacity to do it. This is Education

3. Patients are people. Your mum, your dad, your child, your partner. Not statistics, people. We’ve been underfunded & understaffed for so long now that people are being failed daily. Thanks to the political choice to run the NHS into the ground. It makes me want weep with rage.
