Very best of luck to all those starting their #PGCE this year! It will be tough, but teaching is the very best of vocations - good choice! I'm excited to meet our new cohort next week 😊 #PrimaryPGCE #PrimaryScience #ITE #TeacherTraining #YouveGotThis 💫


"Educators should provide experiences that are meaningful, emotionally charged and imaginatively engaging, and have relevance now, not merely in the future (Dewey 1963, Egan 2008, Rinaldi 2006)."

Which ice lolly would you put on the primary curriculum? 🍦We are calling for ‘essential experiences’ that help children to understand concepts such as temperature to be included in class time. This will reduce inequalities in STEM education. Our report: rsc.li/3X81aNN

I just marked an essay which discussed "duck-feeding education". Is this a cultural reference that I have not heard of?

💬 "The early years really are a vital opportunity to stop this gap from forming." The gap in outcomes between young children from richer and poorer homes has been widening in recent years. This needs to be tackled. Watch our early years webinar 👇 buff.ly/3Rjz1jr

These statistics are shocking. But these are not statistics. They are children who will experience worse educational outcomes, worse health outcomes and worse housing for their entire life. Childhood poverty is a policy choice

We have economies that need to grow, whether or not they make us thrive. Now we need economies that enable us to thrive, whether or not they grow. Here's what I just wrote about it in @guardian 1/2 theguardian.com/books/article/…
