☀️Is there a maximum classroom temperature?

edapt.org.uk/support/know...

🏫The School Premises (England) Regulations 2012 (which applies to maintained schools) do not specify maximum classroom temperatures for any parts of a school.
Is there a maximum classroom temperature? - Edapt
Maximum classroom temperatures can be a hot topic for discussion during the summer months. GOV.UK explains that during working hours the temperature in all indoor workplaces must be reasonable.

Have you seen the new Robinsons ad?
📺 www.youtube.com/watch?v=sO6P...

A teacher calls home about behaviour. The parent laughs it off. Meant as a joke, but it landed badly. With behaviour a real challenge, undermining teacher authority feels out of step & it appears to have backfired with teachers.

Interesting discussion on @ttradioofficial.bsky.social this weekend about the role of unions. Edapt was founded in 2011 to support teachers who wanted protection without campaigning. Unions matter, but they’re not for everyone and teachers should have a real choice and they do!
