We’re very excited to share that the Barriers to Education website has officially launched: lnkd.in/e5vmcDaQ

The website has been created to bring parents, carers and professionals together with practical, compassionate approaches that make a real difference.

Past me: what if I don’t have enough data that’s codable
present me: yep no that definitely didn’t happen

So lovely to have such an great group of TEPs AEPs and aspiring EPs attending our @tepicc1.bsky.social session today at the @edpsy.bsky.social festival. I've left with a very full cup and feeling privileged to have co-facilitated the session with such a reflective and hopeful group #edpsych

We’re presenting at the Edpsy festival next week facilitating a reflective session using the tree of life franework. We hope to support current and aspiring TEPs to think about personal and professional identity and how we can support collective action within the profession. #edpsychs
🌟TEPICC at the festival

Delighted that Karimah, Bethanie, Rafia and Pippa will join us in the 'TEP & Aspiring EP' tent.

They'll facilitate an exploration of how bringing our authentic selves to our work can aid our collective liberatory action as future (T)EPs.

Are you a qualified or trainee educational psychologist who sometimes feels like a fraud, doubts your abilities, or attributes success to luck rather than skill? I would love to hear from you!

Can fully recommend adding all your placement days and team meetings into your 25/26 calendar and looking at it feeling like for a brief moment in time, everything is in order. Just me psyching myself up for year 3 with colour coordinated outlook 😅 #twittereps

I'd love to upskill in my EY work in relation to mark making and also help my little nephew with his along the way!
Since the DfE's new writing framework seriously downplays the importance of emergent writing, I'm giving away a free copy of my book on mark making because it 100% *does* matter! ☺️

Like and repost to enter. Winner announced next Thursday. #EduSky #giveaway #freebie

Is there a better feeling than a teenager who doesn’t easily talk to new adults trusting you with their story and telling you they wished you were coming back because you were kind and actually listened to them 🥰 Gotta hold on to these moments in the sea of reports and imposter syndrome #edpsychs
