It’s ok for something that’s broken to remain broken for a while. Most stakeholders can keep going in a broken system as long as they don’t have to fight to prove it anymore.

The speed of the ‘fix’ is not more important than the quality of it.

A teacher briefing on Y6 transition day: “We were told, if there was ever an opportunity, could we shout at the children and make them cry, so they felt frightened and intimidated ahead of starting in Sept.” These kids were 10. In a strange school. “Healthy” fear? www.theguardian.com/education/20...

Are you looking for a Christmas present for someone creative . . . a teacher, an arty friend, a parent with kids who like making stuff? 🤔

'Ikigai' or 'a reason for being' is a Japanese concept explaining what constitutes a happy life. You need to combine what you love, what you're good at, what you can earn money from, and what the world needs.
The answer to all four of these for me is creativity. 👍

This sounds like one rule for some and one rule for others Pepe? I wonder what criteria allows some cases to be judged more, or less important. Surely any official body would need to explain its methodology, especially one with the power to end someone’s career?

Interesting hearing that the #TRA (Teacher Regulator) is going through Hearings and discarding some with no written reports.They have a spotlight upon them and are trying to act like there’s nothing to see here. It’s a failing regulator that could become part of any educator’s life at any moment.

Sneaky, nasty, vile little creatures. That’s about the nicest thing I can put in print for this kind of bullying BS. If we found this behaviour in playgrounds from kids there would be uproar! Why is it accepted from grown ass adults that SHOULD know better?

For those asking, both cases are still live. I will not give up on getting justice. This article is more relevant than ever today. I resigned and was offered a settlement by the CEO of the Trust. I rejected the offer.

SEND Advocacy is in a bad state. Parents and Carers are receiving poor services, then are threatened when they share their experiences.

So we have created a space to help you find a good advocate.

1) The inspiration.
2&3) How it’s going so far.
4) WhatsApp-ing your teammates & they have no idea what their faces were needed for & what will be landing in their desks on Friday! 🤣
Note: absolutely no elf trick shenanigans planned, just elf-ed the team for fun. 😁
