Leaning increasingly into the visualiser not just for modelling or going through answers — but for live annotation, responsive explanation, and adapting in real time. Students don’t just see the content… they see the thinking. And that’s the point. #DirectInstruction #Teaching #Visualiser

Today we were asked to sum up our ideal career legacy in a sentence. Here’s mine: “He built a place where strength was nurtured, purpose was found, and dreams had no limits.”Could’ve gone with “He fought the printer and won”, but decided to aim higher. #education #leadership #schools

@johntomsett.bsky.social at #ResearchEd Warrington: Great teaching is about clarity, high expectations, and building strong relationships — not flashy tricks. Work hard for your students, explain with purpose, and always raise the bar.
Great teaching doesn’t happen by accident. #teaching #education

Jon Morris at #ResearchEd Warrington: Culture isn’t a slogan — it’s built through daily stories, rituals, and heroes.
Shape the spaces and traditions in your school deliberately.
Culture eats strategy for breakfast — every time. #schoolculture #leadership

Abigail Olubuyide at #ResearchEd Warrington: Authentic leadership starts with knowing and using your strengths.
Lead with purpose, serve others with compassion, and build trust through self-awareness. Strengths-based leadership isn’t soft — it’s powerful. #leadership #strengths

David Goodwin at #ResearchEd Warrington: Performance is not learning. Don’t assume understanding because a few hands go up — probe deeply, check everyone, respond in the moment. Cold calling, mini whiteboards, and warm accountability unlock real learning.

John Hattie at #ResearchEd Warrington: AI won’t transform education unless it’s integrated into how we teach, not just how we work. Teach students to question AI, manage its errors, and collaborate with it thoughtfully. AI should help students think better — not think less. #AI #researchinformed

At #ResearchEd Warrington, @teacherhead.bsky.social:
Teaching success isn’t reaching a few students — it’s making every student think hard. Short feedback loops, scaffolded discussion, and high expectations aren’t extras — they’re essentials. Teaching all > teaching some.
