‘The most pressing challenges facing our sector will not be solved by another short-term pilot,’ write two CPD leads, who advocate taking a more long-term, collaborative approach to teacher professional development

“We welcome flexible working” on job ads isn’t enough.
If we’re serious about recruitment & retention, we need to design flexibility into roles — especially in leadership.
Not a perk. Not a concession. Just good, inclusive practice.
It’s time to move the conversation on.
Exclusive: Mums returning to teaching from maternity leave are more likely to stay in their jobs if they work part-time, a major new study suggests

Hey @PhaseEightPR , I emailed with a product concern on 29th May and the reply said I would hear from somebody in 48 hours. All I've received since are holding emails. Can somebody please get in touch/ desk with my query? [TFG:2515728]
Desperate parent alert! Our 4yo left his beloved teddy Moley (Florence the Mole from Any Creatures Wildlife) at Premier Inn Doncaster Lakeside on May 31. Likely scooped up with laundry 🧺💔 Discontinued + irreplaceable. Please RT + help us bring him home! 🙏#bringmoleyhome

Recognising children's needs is not 'creating a class of victims'. It's not down to 'naughty children' or 'bad parenting'.
Reform council leaders must distance themselves from these shameful comments and protect children with SEND from their ideological cuts.

Experts often put their expertise down to 'lots of experience'.
But…
It can't just be that because we have experienced non-experts.
Experience is necessary but not sufficient (Berliner, 1987).
So how do we turn average experiences into ones that power expertise?

Being part of a group of schools working in a #SchoolTrust means that collaboration, improvement and accountability are hardwired. It is the best mechanism we have of securing improvement where the quality of education is not good enough. We should not give this up lightly.
Children’s Wellbeing and Schools Bill being introduced to parliament today:
💥Ends automatic academisation of all “failing” schools
💥Says all schools - inc academies - will offer teachers the same “core pay & conditions”

I just bumped into my old primary school Head, Mr Grieveson – a brilliant, inspiring teacher.
It's the first time I've seen him since 1995, but we all remember teachers that made a difference to our lives.
He says teaching is still a brilliant career 👉 getintoteaching.education.go….

It was great to attend the @TrustCPDLeads meeting this morning.
Some great reflections and discussions.
It was also great to hear from @DebbieClintonHM discuss how we can support colleagues to thrive.
