You can be a really good teacher and have strong behaviour management but still be struggling with behaviour in your class, don’t be too proud to ask for help.
New blog post: A very personal account as a new Headteacher reflecting on my own school reports as a child with an ADHD diagnosis.

There's a lot wrong with English cricket.
The white ball team appears clueless and how many Test series has BazBall actually won? It's not saving Test cricket, and after a 5-0 walloping by India, it won't appear quite so sexy.
Stick The Hundred through August and it throws everything else out of synch.
I've been telling you for years.

I have made several editable variations of the digital counting stick slide I uploaded last week. Versions include: multiples of 2, 3, 4, 5 & 6. Post-it notes above and on counting stick and a version with Numicon above. I hope they are of some use. I will upload the link below.

Does anyone have a free online MTC that would track what the child had inputted as their answer and a score at the end? Looking to get a baseline for our Year 4s.
My experience within @glf has been nothing but positive, something in huge part down to what Jon has shaped. All the best in your next chapter
