And I did it again! I may be on maternity leave but I am still eager to know what comes up in the AQA Eng papers. Good call from me to do work on Jonathan Small and criminals for TSOF before Easter! Great extract for R and J too. So what do we think for Lit P2???

SLT have to create the culture and centralised behaviour systems so that all teachers/adults are respected and can teach/do their job, free from disruption/rudeness, no matter whether they are a supply teacher, ECT, site team member or cleaner. Relationships develop over time.
Replying to @tombennett71
As a supply teacher this is problematic for me. Just because I'm a visiting adult do I not deserve respect because I don't know the kids and have no relationship? It's all about school culture to me. EVERY teacher deserves respect.

Primary school teacher @ICT_MrP explains why our teachers have been pushed to the difficult decision to strike, and the list is a lot longer than just pay. #Lorraine #Teacherstrike

The teacher bashing I’m seeing on social media at the moment is UNREAL. Everything from being called ‘lazy’ to ‘left wing commies.’ What’s the best/worst you’ve heard? @TTRadioOfficial @MrTs_NQTs #strike #nobodyunderstands #teachertwitter #teacherbashing

Agree with the strike action. Agree that a days pay is nothing compared to what we are owed. But I am 5 mnths pregnant, leaving after Easter and simply cannot afford the loss in pay. I also feel for my students. Wish I wasn’t so conflicted 😞 #neu #TeacherStrike

Yesterday was a long, full on day but finally gave me the teaching lift I needed. A meeting to set up a collaboration with a university (some exciting workshops coming for film students!) Finding out 2/4 of my GCSE resit students passed on the Nov resit…

… then watching the drama and dance showcase. Those students are so talented and hardworking - some I had no idea they did all that outside of school. Hoping I can feel more positive through yet another full on day today 🙏💕 #teachertwitter #keepthefaith #kidsareamazing

Teacher Twitter: how colourful are your lessons? I’m interested to know if/how people use colour coding as a teaching and learning strategy and how it helps your pupils. Mini project incoming… @TTRadioOfficial @TeacherToolkit @MrTs_NQTs
