Head of Geography Secondary at @arkcurriculumplus
Very excited about our upcoming Global Oceans unit. I've been working on a decision-making lesson about ocean resources, including seabed mining, fishing and wave power. Should each type of economic activity be stopped, restricted or encouraged? #geogchat #GeographyMastery #ArkCurriculumPlus

Alright squad, tonight's question:
What's the thing you've seen this year that you thought "wow that's a great idea I'm going to do that" and then done it? Could be within your school, or something you saw online or whatever. Anything goes, T&L, behaviour, curriculum, leadership etc

Too much time is wasted on the what in education rather than the how.
Centralising your department's resources frees up time for teachers to focus on what truly matters!

I’ve always been anti booklets but I’m looking at saving lesson time and having a greater focus on students learning and practising in lesson rather than ‘doing’
Would love to talk to someone about their rationale and how you find them in practice.

Has anyone gone down a route of teaching using curriculum booklets even when it’s not a whole-school requirement?
Seriously thinking about investing the time into creating them for GCSE but not 100% convinced yet.

Terrible news today:
This year, one-third of coral cover has been destroyed in two northern sections of the Great Barrier reef due to anthropogenic heating.
Results for the southern sections (which were even hotter) have not been officially released.
