Excellent article from @DTWillingham on teaching reading comprehension, and in particular, why teaching reading comprehension strategies is useful, but not enough: bit.ly/47ryjpC
Transferable skills surely require a broadening knowledge base. Are our teachers unskilled enough to split screen their teaching?
Scotland "downgraded the status of knowledge and adopted a competence-based approach, emphasising the development of transferable skills and interdisciplinary learning."
Result: Own Goal.

Friends,
This is a very personal ask and it means a lot to me. I’m trying to get this video the widest possible audience. The video shares a link to a page that is attempting to share our free anti-bullying curriculum far & wide. We are trying to make the world a better place & keep other kids from hurting. If you Tweet, Insta, Facebook, Threads or just plain share we would be in your debt. youtu.be/GtBton8N894?si=p5Vz…
And still to this day, @SirKenRobinson influences me in what I do... Cheers, Sir! A Future For Us All - Sir Ken Robinson - youtu.be/Y5COPxUUIiY?si=H1El…

Always a pleasure to be interviewed on @ninetonoon. Today's discussion was fairly broad-ranging, exploring the ever-growing number of education initiatives being announced in the lead-up to the election.

AI likely to spell end of traditional school classroom, leading expert says. @dwenmoth theguardian.com/technology/2…
This is key...
The culture of a school is created by everyone. Walk in a school and see how the front office staff talks and interacts or the staff /teachers in the hallway. Yes, the leadership influences it, but everyone is ultimately responsible for a positive school culture. #edchat
