Serious post:

Look after yourself this year.

Doing ‘what’s best for the kids’ does not (and *must* not) necessitate the compromise of your health - mental and physical.

It just isn’t worth it. *You* matter.

Assert your boundaries unabashedly.

You got this!

As you begin your teaching journey, there will be a lot of talk about the importance of relationships.

And that is true- they are important.

But what does that mean and how do you build them?

Check out my latest book on Amazon:

The science book will have a chapter which won't be available in the free version on practical science.

Sorry about that, but I've had over 50 000 downloads of my KS3 books and think there needs to be a reason for somebody to buy the Science book.

***SCIENCE DOCTOR KS3 SCIENCE WORKBOOK***

I go back to work on Thursday - so got a wiggle on in finishing this.

A free KS3 Biology workbook is now uploaded & I've collated all KS3 work into a monster 250+ page KS3 science workbook.

KS3 Biology is now ~75% written.

New booklet on the human body now freely downloadable at:

I've had quite a lot happening over last couple of weeks so progress has slowed a little, thought it would be nice to have as much as possible done by Sep though.

***NEW Episode***

Allow me to be absolutely direct:

Your biggest problem next year is going to be low level disruption.

It’s worth having a plan for how you’ll manage it before school starts.

@strickomaster.bsky.social and I discuss some strategies.

Hi all,

Below is the 1st episode of my podcast for teachers.

Here I talk about that annoying phrase:

‘Well, they behave in MY lesson!’

Here’s how to respond:
