Why does the DfE insist on dropping reams of new guidance on schools as the school year is coming to an end? @michaelsgreen.bsky.social calls for a different approach to protect teachers' and leaders' wellbeing
The DfE’s July guidance dumps must become a thing of the past
The unfortunate tradition of releasing reams of new statutory guidance as the summer term comes to an end is unfair to schools and exacerbates staff workload, warns Professor Michael Green

Easter egg boxes these days are very bland & samey. As a 1980s child, I can still remember the excitement of getting eggs in boxes of different shapes & sizes with my favourite TV characters on.

What was your favourite Easter egg as a child?
