Not long now! Happening tomorrow evening @TeacheryDiaz sharing sage advice & strategies to boost #gcse grades in this week's @linguascope webinar. Register via the @linguascope staffroom, webinar app or here: bit.ly/3VUhfGM #mfltwitterati #mflchat #langchat #examprep
In other news: kids who tell their teachers to f*** off all the time ‘tend not to do as well as they could.’ Eye-watering stupid activism from this organisation. Grateful to @SkyNews for allowing me to provide a reality check. So many of these stories rely on one-sided…
Children excluded in primary school 'less likely to pass GCSEs' Read more🔗 trib.al/T9WvgLD
My new KS3 T&L page with resources for the whole KS3 based on the new MFL GCSE is now finished! The last addition is Term 3 for Y9 (Festivals with a focus on La Tomatina). They include all resources & many links to interactive activities. #mfltwitterati mflcraft.blogspot.com/p/new-teaching…
My Y5/6 class had to write their address for an activity today. Mind absolutely blown. Some put their phone number, some their postcode. Some started with the country. One child thought the whole road was called the number of her house. Let’s scale this curriculum down shall we?
This. It’s never ‘for asking questions,’ or, ‘I was just laughing.’ It’s not for not having a pencil. It’s because students attack teachers, bully kids into hell, ruin months of lessons, smash up rooms, tell teachers to f*ck off, and behave in a way literally no one could…
I think it’s always useful to ask people who are “against exclusions” why they think schools exclude pupils.
So British education secretary Gillian Keegan announces a massive expansion of foreign language teaching in UK schools while ignoring the massive shortage of language teachers in UK schools because of Brexit. Another empty, meaningless announcement that will amount to nothing.
50K+ a year and 30% minimum PPA. That's what's needed to start to sort teaching out. Full backing for teachers and schools on behaviour would be next. Stop spending money on think tanks, surveys, reports, OFSTED, bursaries, schemes and speeches. Just do this.
After a long time... *new post on the blog* about the strategies that are working wonderfully for me to prepare my Y11s for their Oral/Writing GCSE exams. #mfltwitterati @ALL4language @AQA mflcraft.blogspot.com/2024/03/gcse-g…
Can anyone from the #mfltwitterati suggest a suitable Spanish film for year 7 that isn't Coco?!
If you allow students to select the challenge they prefer, don't be surprised if the furthest behind don't make very much progress. But you can hug yourself, knowing how groovy you are
Instead of offering easy vs. hard math problems, allow students to select where they are that day (like in the spice meter below!) This empowers learners and promotes a safe environment. More tips to engage math students ⬇️ bit.ly/4aXwC6e
As ever, the fallout from this has been swift and predictable. Once again: if you don't work in a school, if you've never worked in a school with challenging behaviour, belt up. Behaviour is a scourge. It is a rot at the centre of our system that harms teachers and students…
Definitely one of the best double periods for Higher speaking prep today! Speaking question Jenga went down a treat, along with talking tennis and unpredictable dice rolls… Well worth the painstakingly time consuming evening spent numbering multiple sets of jenga 😂
I'm told that an academy chain is insisting that all staff use exactly the same slides and are not allowed to use any of their own resources. Authoritarian madness. How can the boss class know how to teach children they've never seen?
I’ve definitely found it faster to mark essays by using comparative marking. Using an empty classroom I read each essay then put them onto either the top middle or bottom row. Then I read across the row putting them into an order from best to worst. Then…
A lot of people miss that you can have an inclusive school system (ie one that ensures access to a safe, dignified education) AND still exclude a minority of high-challenge students (to specialist school environments/ fresh starts), but you cannot have an inclusive system that…
Education secretary Jenny Gilruth has today confirmed that the Scottish government will review Scotland’s approach to school exclusions @Henry_Hepburn reports tes.com/magazine/news/…
Teachers will want to work and stay in a school where they feel valued, included, listened to and developed. Where they feel trusted, supported and empowered. Not where they feel judged, micro-managed, directed and disempowered.
Teacher training stats are down again for September….. Until training is free & teaching pays a competitive salary I can’t see things changing. Yes workload, behaviour, culture etc have a role but they don’t pay people’s bills.
I have created revision module sheets for GCSE (Units 1,2,3, and 4 finished so far). Setting as homework to guide my Year 11s in their revision. Happy to share if useful! #mfltwitterati
I have just voted in the @NEUnion preliminary #PayUp ballot! @GillianKeegan if this Government won't save our schools and colleges, we will. #InvestInEducation Vote now at 👉neuactivate.com https://t.co/eOTm6oP35z
