What a stunning setting for #rEdEdinburgh today! It was a privilege to be a part of an amazing line up of speakers! For anyone who'd like to see the slides you can find them on my blog lnkd.in/eZSf6iQP

Worth remembering when using teacher assessment to monitor standards within and between schools, that a human opinion is not a standard unit of measurement.

Less than a week to go! Huge thanks to @mrsball.bsky.social, @singhamarbeerg.bsky.social, & Adam Kohlbeck, who kindly read the book prior to publication. Did we mention the LEGEND that is @funkypedagogy.bsky.social was generous enough to write our foreword!? Unlocking Oracy! amzn.eu/d/dft0jXh

A massive well done to @mrenglishmaths.bsky.social and @nimtassoc.bsky.social for putting together an absolutely phenomenal inaugural conference - big things to come for maths in Northern Ireland!! #NIMTAConf

It finally happened! After 3 years on the circuit I met another sardar invited to speak at a conference, and it was none other than @theteacherwins.bsky.social ! #EduSardars

"Assessment is at the heart of effective teaching and learning, yet it remains one of the most complex and often misunderstood areas within education." @marymyatt.bsky.social in conversation with @singhamarbeerg.bsky.social for @myattandco.bsky.social: marymyatt.substack.com/p/assessment...

First up at #ReDBmouth was a very thought provoking look at assessment from @s-donarski.bsky.social - big takeaway being that "assessment" can't be separated from curriculum design and delivery.
