Just posted new blog on Bluesky and not (yet) on Twitter. Be interesting to see engagement. Will I fold and put it on Twitter too? Please help me avoid the temptation by reposting here!

Interested in responses to this: for the 2nd year running we have had strong GCSE results but poor A Level. We have silent supervised study, students on good starting points but they are getting way lower than expected across the board. Where do we start?

Huge shout out to all staff involved in exams and Sixth Form (whose holidays basically ended last Wednesday!) There are kids at the other end of every email so it is very much worth it.

My first BlueSky resource share! A new booklet designed to help students with considering quotations from the literature texts. As always… use/chuck/change as you see fit! @teamenglish1.bsky.social
