Every day cover teachers / building subs are in front of our students. It is very rare for them to have specific training on how to add value to often poorly left cover work. So I set out to provide it. Now I need leaders to invest in their development www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B0GY1QHWFY

Ok so I started blue-sky last summer when lots were boycotting X, but when term time started I struggled to keep up both and moved back to X. However a year later and I barely post on X any more so hopefully can start this up again and keep it going in September. Who is still here posting? Say Hi

Loved being on the podcast with Zach. We talked about my book briefly but mainly just had a great chat about several aspects of education. Do give it a listen if you have a chance ##Edusky

After a recent blog about task heavy T&L policies. What might a policy might look like based on ideas instead? This is paraphrased from Sweller “Learning improves when we reduce unnecessary cognitive load so that students’ working memory can focus on what really matters.” Any others #Edusky ?

Seeing it firsthand, it is so clear how wasteful students can be with their precious revision time. They *still* waste time and effort despite assumptions about knowing what to do. Here are the ‘7 deadly sins of exam revision’: alexquigley.co.uk/the-7-deadly...

The 7 Deadly Sins of Exam Revision

Year after year, teachers conduct assemblies, workshops, and share resources on effective revision. Despite all that effort, students continue to fall for the all-too-common seven deadly sins of exam ...

Told myself my DIY days were over after I did the bathroom last year, the choice of small subway style tiles left me traumatised, but after seeing the quotes to lay down parquet flooring looks like I'm coming out of retirement, wish me luck.
