🚨Calling all Midlands teachers🚨

We’d really appreciate you sharing this hands on dissection event with your students (ages 14-19). A fantastic opportunity for those considering a career in healthcare!

Any shares or reshares from Midlands schools would be hugely appreciated!

We had an incredible time at our annual PTFA festive wreath-making evening! This is one of my absolute favorite events to organise, even if it means spending the night on hot chocolate duty. The laughter, creativity, and community spirit made it all so worthwhile!

Year 7 absolutely smashed their Introduction to Forces lesson today! We wrapped up with a 'force dance mat' activity, making learning interactive, fun, and unforgettable. Physics + dance = perfect combo for engagement! 🎯

📚 My teacher beige flag: hoarding CPD books but not reading them! 😅 Setting a challenge to finish at least one per month. Accountability, here we go!

🧪 KS3 students enjoyed Halloween-themed science practicals this week, focusing on observing chemical reactions like bubbles, color changes, and effervescence. A fun way to strengthen their scientific skills and spark curiosity! 🎃

Anyone else have a serious M&S blazer addiction? Justifying it as a work necessity... 🙈

👋 As I’m following some new teachers I thought I would share this post about my blog on teaching effective strategies to decode exam questions.

The blog post is also the home for this document, should you wish to download and have a copy.
