I feel like I’m losing MY mind over the state of the media here in some parts.
The gaslighting is off the scale.
It’s so exhausting watching the bad guys keep getting away with stuff.

Gov proposing students must take 2/3 of the breadth compulsory categories, *knowing full well* Category C: Languages will be the one avoided.
Well done.

Labour Education gonna Labour.
Tiresome.

Oh am never going to the bad place now!
Will be here as much as my 2 year old will allow 😆

Love “turn and talk”. Also give students some words on the board to use in their discussions, I also like to include a “rogue” one which doesn’t belong, to make sure that they’re thinking hard 👏🏻

No, all other half terms are 1 week.
Yes the 2 week half term in the autumn is so needed, with all the sickness and bugs!
November 2, 2025 at 9:31 PM
It varies across our Trust. Things like 8.30-3.30 etc.
Stats have shown we have decreased staff absence and sickness in the Autumn term as a result. It’s deffo a big sell for R&R too! This is our 3rd year of doing it 👏🏻

Did you get the their email Wednesday evening saying they’ve pulled the 12/17 requirements?
October 24, 2025 at 7:18 AM
They did!
So any changes that could be coming, would be the 3rd version….🫠
October 24, 2025 at 7:17 AM
They did! And I’ve just as of this morning had an email survey from them where we can put our ideas forward!
What a farce!!!

So sorry to read Jasmine feels this way but sadly I’m not surprised. I’ve felt it. Being from NI and living and working in England (18yrs I might add!) I have had comments about my accent and been questioned on why I’m here.

Sadly it’s capitalism when there’s money to be made and socialism when it goes bad. Bailouts etc.
Maddening.

2/2 trying to teach the demands of the course and prepare students for approaching mocks. Most of us haven’t even conducted a new style GCSE oral exam this year and to work within ever changing goal posts is challenging to say the least.
