Great to see a @5DTrust school leading the way
Great to see Walton High School, Milton Keynes Education Trust, use #GuideToFeedback to reform their current teaching and learning policy. I've read 400+ school policies, this is the first to use #GuideToFeedback to move formative assessment into the next decade! Live marking and verbal feedback isn't enough!

Our CEdO Chris Holmwood shares his perspective in #beyondmanifestos. Great to see so much alignment from the sector.
Curious about the future of education? Read Beyond Manifestos, a new publication by SSAT where school leaders and other educators share their insights on what education needs next. Download for free: ssatuk.co.uk/beyondmanifesto… #BeyondManifestos #education

Busy week of leadership NPQs with @bestpracticenet and @ChilternTSH this week exploring the decisions school leaders make balancing educational outcomes with operational effectiveness. What is the most helpful question a governor has ever asked you in this area?

Or, as jazz saxophonist Charlie Parker said, "You've got to learn your instrument. Then, you practice, practice, practice. And then, when you finally get up there on the bandstand, forget all that and just wail."
Was meaning to blog this but was getting distracted so a rare🧵: I see 100s of lessons and teachers and it’s clear to me the best teaching appears fluid and artful but is always built on sound techniques deployed with purpose; intentionality; precision.. /n

Great discussion with @PrioryRise using @BlobTreeDotCom and Kolb’s learning cycle to explore the leaders we are, the leaders we would like to be and need to be. Is there a difference for you?
