So excited to see the launch of this series - it’s a pinch me moment - but here is my latest book for all you wonderful primary geography leaders! Thank you @bloomsburyed.bsky.social for the adventure! ♥️🌍

I’m delighted to have contributed to this series! @triciamoss.bsky.social and I wanted to bring together everything we wished we’d known back when we were starting out in leadership of the English curriculum. We hope How To Lead It, Primary English does just that for primary English subject leaders!

I’m really excited to share that I’ve written a book with the awesome @missis-scs.bsky.social for primary English subject leaders. Huge thanks to @jonhutchinson.bsky.social for his wise words and support along the journey!

📚How to Lead It titles enable busy subject leaders to make good decisions for effective teaching and impactful curricula with confidence. Pre-order now!

Teachers have heard of Barak Rosenshine’s principles of instruction, but what about his essential insights into ‘knowledge structures’?

It was a great privilege learning from @markmccourt.bsky.social yesterday in a preview of this day. If there are any spaces left for this I’d recommend you come and listen. Guaranteed to make you think deeply about primary maths education. @triciamoss.bsky.social @catherinelock.bsky.social

This is the first time I have spoken in public since retiring and my only CPD session of 2024.

I would love to see you there if you are interested in raising attainment in primary mathematics.

Huge thanks to DEMAT for hosting this day and being open to making it public and free for all to attend.

Every year on the first Inset, Chris Fairbairn (my boss) gives the same talk about maintaining high expectations of all students. "High expectations" can't just be a slogan, it actually needs to mean something. Here's a blog with an example:

Just posted new blog on Bluesky and not (yet) on Twitter. Be interesting to see engagement. Will I fold and put it on Twitter too? Please help me avoid the temptation by reposting here!

I took the liberty of making a starter pack for all the speakers at #rED24 so people can follow as many of them and there are two feeds as well. please share go.bsky.app/6C8kW2C
