🧠 Thinking about Universal Design for Learning (UDL)
One of the most powerful shifts in my teaching has been realising that accessibility is not just about supporting a few pupils, it is about designing for everyone. UDL asks us to anticipate variability from the start, not retrofit supports later.

🧠 Teaching Tip: The 4Cs (post 1/2)
Want to future-proof your teaching? Build the 4Cs, communication, collaboration, creativity, and critical thinking, into your lessons. These skills help pupils thrive now and into the future.

I’ve been mapping my Personal Learning Network this week, reflecting on who I learn from, how I connect, and where there’s space to grow. It reminded me how powerful informal networks can be. If you’re working in similar spaces, I’d love to connect.

🔬 Top Resource
This week’s highlight is @phetsims.bsky.social
STEM simulations, a fantastic resource I use with my physics pupils alongside in-class experiments. Great for prompting hypotheses and discussion before diving into theory. Always sparks curiosity!

👋 Hi! Studying for a PGDip in Online Teaching @openuniversity.bsky.social. Exploring open pedagogy this week and taking steps towards sharing more online. 20 years in education, but new to using social media professionally.

Looking forward to connecting!
