The other benefits might outweigh the individually designed lesson that I might have taught but I wouldn’t want to lose the skill of being able to do this from the profession. The ‘I found a really good resource to teach x that I think would really work well with my y8 class on a Friday’

Totally agree with this for all of the reasons you mentioned, but as a classroom teacher years ago, I really enjoyed thinking deeply about how to teach certain concepts to the students in the classes I taught, and I don’t think I could teach as effectively from shared resources.

It’s a right faff isn’t it. That and having to reconfirm every few months 🙄

Absolutely. Excellent example. I was thinking back to the 2016 curriculum changes whereby the specifications and resources were rushed out. Further back to the intensity of curriculum changes to KS3 and KS4 in the late noughties (APP etc). Either way, whatever aspect, we need plenty of time 🤞

I thought that too ☺️. Let’s hope any changes are given sufficient lead in time 🤞

Exciting times ❤️

The auto generated messages annoy me. So much so I often don’t read LinkedIn messages and might be missing something that isn’t auto generated!

I really miss those #edutwitter days before the binary arguments. The best of it was the thought provoking conversations, networking, sharing resources and endless brilliant blogs. Let’s hope Bluesky will fill this void 🤞

I only found this thread because I searched to see if Jill was here 😒.

An ideal in my mind would be one central not for profit exam board to co-ordinate with subject teaching associations for exams and marking.
