For those who want to teach in specialist settings, there should be the option to train in specialist settings. Doesn't seem unreasonable. It's great to be having some discussions that might be moving this forward. 🤞🌟

#womenedwednesday @womenedscotland.bsky.social a reminder to myself to focus on the things that have the right impact. As a good pal said this week, 'The weight of the challenge is directly linked to the importance of the work.' 🌟

What to do when your self care non-negotiables collide?! Had a fabulous morning listening to these inspiring ladies, then jumped off the call into my favourite gym class. Brilliant start to the day. 🌟

This was given to me a wee while ago, and I was reminded of it the other week. Stay focused on the main thing - getting it right for the children and keep pushing the boundaries of what is possible and magic can happen. #womenedwednesday

Every education professional should be doing enquiry. There's no doubt in my mind. However when language is applied unthinkingly without acknowledging complexity of classrooms, teacher expertise and evidence as connected to teaching & learning, then it can set us up to fail/8

Here's hoping we can welcome student and NQT teachers into our schools soon. 78% of parents surveyed thought it was vital.

Make ASN training mandatory for all school staff, say parents
A shortage of specialist skills among school staff for helping pupils with additional support needs has been highlighted by a Scottish parents’ organisation

Very excited about this!!!
Our book, Teacher Agency: An Ecological Approach, was published in 2015. The 2nd Edition - substantially updated - has just been submitted to the publisher- should be published next year 😁
