If you’re interested in exploring different approaches to accountability, this new book from @headrestuk.bsky.social will help.
As a profession we need to speak for ourselves, and those in this book are bravely doing just that.
Includes a foreword by Rt Hon Lord Jim Knight.

Looking forward to the latest timely issue of Impact @collegeofteaching.bsky.social.
With all the stuff about retention, Ofsted and accountability, it’s a good time to be thinking about teacher professionalism and why it’s so important.

Been using this model a lot recently to structure coaching conversations with school leaders.
The Authentic Leader Model includes 9 baseplates that lead to impact.
From experience, they are things that leaders need constantly to pay attention to. Who is attending to them in your school? #edusky

A very relevant chapter from the new book Beyond Belief by @headrestuk.bsky.social featuring @naht.org.uk and their 2018 Accountability Commission.
‘The way schools are being held to account was doing more harm than good.’
Sadly, it seems nothing will change.
