The lady doth protest too much, methinks

It's a little bit crooked, but still the straightest one on the pole.

Huge thanks to all from @IrishSciTeach who planned a great event in @TUS_ie for #scienceweek


There are thousands of fully qualified, to Masters level, PE teachers screaming to be listened to. Actual experts in pedagogy. But let’s get a photo op instead. No disrespect to those pictured…except Norma Foley who will receive respect when she shows an ounce of it to teachers

Delighted to talk to Davy Fitzgerald, the new Antrim hurling manager, about fitness for children in schools as well as :: Anthony “Star” Geoghegan, who works with high performance athletes worldwide, ::Sharon Flanagan of Fitness for Kids :: Jennifer Murnane O’Connor TD.

Case in point! @humphreyjones on the ball with this, as per usual! Will @NormaFoleyTD1 respond to teacher voice? Absolutely not, as per usual

An excellent letter in today’s Urish Times from @humphreyjones @IrishSciTeach in today’s Irish Times.

Another night of being blown away by the students of the Postgraduate in School Leadership with @Leaders_SoE if you’re thinking of taking the plunge, do it 🙌 it’s such a pleasure to tutor on this course every year 🙌


Never underestimate the small things in life that give a little joy. I cried laughing seeing students reactions to the newest member of our class. SpongeBob the sponge holder. Greatest purchase of my adult life 🙌

Junior Cycle reporting and grading is not fit for purpose! Not just from a progression to LC standpoint but general fairness! How can a student get who gets 55% be graded the same as a 75%! LC Grade change from A/B/C to H/O’s was excellent. How about we give C1-C8 and use LC…


Finally updated my Literacy Look-in with some new additions! Modelling interest and pride in literacy in all of its forms 🙌

1. It was the DUP 2. It was a pilot to assess value vs efficacy - a good idea! 3. This money will never be seen again, whether claimed or not, for actually effective initiatives 4. I’m withered by schools being used as a PR punching bags for below average politicians (not aimed…

Taoiseach answers two questions about the value-for-money of the phone pouch initiative (“if a school wants to apply they can, if they don’t want to, they don’t have to, nobody’s going to force it on them”)… by twice mentioning SF spent £250k on phone pouches in the North

I brought this up at both the @NCCAie public consultation and @oide_Ireland Whole School Senior Cycle day as a concern. Both times it was written down and both times ignored without comment.

Thank you for your positive review of my article which expresses concern that allocating 40% of Leaving Cert marks for a non-exam components could widen the gap between advantaged and less advantaged students. @humphreyjones @astiunion @TUIunion @EducateTogether



Anyone who knows me knows the @OneNoteEDU is major part of my professional personality 🙈 quick video here on using it to create an interactive page for students on Scientific Method with links to literacy, wellbeing and some whole school guidance! Thanks for @biologybugbears for…
