I’ve written a blog on Mainstream Inclusion Strategies: not as another document for the website, but as a way for schools to surface what’s already happening, test assumptions, identify gaps and decide what needs to be sharper. moderncassie.blogspot.com/20… #Inclusion #send

Dylan Wiliam calls Cognitive Load Theory “the single most important thing for teachers to know.” This guide summarises core CLT ideas and highlights six high-impact strategies for reducing overload. It focuses on the classroom levers teachers can pull right away. CLT goes much deeper, of course — transient information included — but these strategies offer some of the fastest gains. 💪 Free HQ copy if you want it: jamieleeclark.com/graphics

A truly amazing day at Oldfields Hall Middle School. Well done to the staff, volunteers and those who donated prizes, time or equipment. However, the highlight was our inspirational students who performed so fantastically. Very proud to lead this school. @oldfieldsTL

☑️ CHECKING FOR UNDERSTANDING! Highly recommend the book ‘Explicit Direct Instruction (EDI)’ by Hollingsworth, and Ybarra. The ‘TAPPLE’ acronym they introduce is ingenious for memorising their steps for Checking for Understanding. Take a look at this visual breakdown...

We ❤️ our lunchtime #JustDance classes! 🕺💃🪩
James Twynham@JamesTwynham8 Nov 2024
On duty today at lunchtime I noted a reduction in students playing outside. Once inside, I heard a noise coming from the hall. Further investigation revealed half the school engaged in a huge Just Dance activity. Pure joy. Well done all #FridayFun @oldfieldsTL

Today is Disability Pay Gap Day. This day serves as an important reminder that, despite strides toward workplace equality, there remains a significant gap in earnings for disabled workers. @The_TUC #DisabilityPayGap #DisabilityPayGapDay

During the last academic year, I updated the SPAG PPTs I use in Y6. There’s a couple of curriculum areas still missing, but I’ve uploaded twenty of them in case they’re useful for others. 🔗 drive.google.com/drive/folde…

So proud of our union, our staff and members. Today, educators stood up to the rise of the Far Right in Britain. Our movement is one of hope, Robinson's one of despair. Black and white united.
