Our Year 6 class are off for three days of transition to secondary school and while they’re gone I’ll be having my own transition day for my new job!

I’m over the moon to have been appointed as the Deputy Headteacher at Skinners’ Temple Grove.

I am so pleased that my colleagues get to listen to @jonnybid.bsky.social speak about reading for pleasure this afternoon. It’s a great way to spend one of our weekly PD sessions and I am looking forward to hearing about what the school does with it going forward.

Looks like a great day at #cogscisci! I needed the full half term to catch up on sleep and others bits and bobs, but I might have to put this on the list for next year!

I am really interested in this distinction between hints and prompts in backward fading from @taylorda01.bsky.social and how to encourage student thinking and self explanation. #TDaPEManchester

It’s been a leadership/coaching heavy morning for me, so I’m finishing off with some maths with celebrated resource author @taylorda01.bsky.social and backward fading, which is one of my favourite things to share with colleagues! This is a great way to finish my learning at #TDaPEManchester

I had to come and see @mradamkohlbeck.bsky.social and @scottinghatt.bsky.social because I love Coaching Unpacked and they are such deep thinkers when it comes to coaching! #TDaPEManchester

I’m excited to see @alexgingell.bsky.social at #TDaPEManchester after hearing such great feedback from London!

What a way to start the day!! Thank you @andrewpercivaled.bsky.social for sharing your thoughts and experience at #TDaPEManchester

1. Clarify your curriculum precisely
2. Use multiple routes to knowledge
3. Space retrieval over long periods of time
4. Supercharge your homework strategy

Was there really any other option for the #TDaPEManchester keynote?! @andrewpercivaled.bsky.social is talking about optimising retrieval practice this morning to get us all in the zone for some good old professional learning on a Saturday!

Here is @kieran-m-ed.bsky.social kicking off #TDaPEManchester this morning!

I’m up in session one, but I won’t force you to sit on the carpet!

We’re two tired teachers on bag duty at #TDaPEManchester this morning so come and say hello!
March 29, 2025 at 8:27 AM
Looking forward to the next #TDaPE conference. This time it’s #TDaPEManchester and I’ll be there talking about the importance of getting teacher development right!

I really did try to find some good in there 😂 listen now on #TDaPE!

Grading lesson observations... is this still common? 🤔

Back in 2018, 28% of schools graded them. Today, only 9% do!

Of those who say it's still a feature in their school, the majority of these teachers don’t like it and would rather it didn’t happen!

Today is the day our pea gets married! 💛

I feel so lucky to be sat on the sofa 4,000 miles away watching this. She looks beautiful and I’m already crying 😭🥰

Today was an exceptional day at #TDaPELondon. It never ceases to amaze me that a group of teachers, leaders and researchers want to come together on a Saturday to learn from each other. A huge shout out to @kieran-m-ed.bsky.social for making the day happen.
