Many of the people who are most excited to learn about leadership are narcissists. Data: people with inflated egos are drawn to theories that glorify leader dominance and charisma. Great leaders view their roles as an act of service, not an avenue for authority and attention.

I know I said it before but I'm really impressed with the @NSWEducation check-in assessments. My Year 7s did the numeracy assessment yesterday. Results are already in SCOUT today to inform teaching and learning.

Whose Poo at the Zoo - Great activity for students to do. It teaches them so much about problem solving, inferring, and analysing. Skills that are crucial fo all students to learn. @JenEng #7DecadesIn7Days @tarongazoo @stansw

One of the great things about working in a physical bookshop, as opposed to other retail, is that you're generally only dealing with people who buy books. I'm not suggesting that book buyers are better humans but they are.

Do we want to talk about the contraceptive pill having a higher potential blood clot rate than the AstraZeneca vaccine? Or are we too tired?

I think I have a solution for the @AFL and @NRL. Play in stadiums with only teachers, students and other school staff in attendance. Or else, just play all the games on school ovals. During school hours. Both safe. #teachers #problemsolving #solution – at Perth, Western Australia
