ALT Resources and support for anti-racist education practitioners across Scotland. This website provides tools, workshops and ideas to support Early Years practitioners and teachers in Scotland to build an anti-racist curriculum which responds positively to the diverse needs of individual learning where all cultures, religions, identities and languages are recognised and valued. The materials have been developed in partnership with a racially diverse group of children, young people and educators across different sectors of Scottish Education.

Practitioner Enquiry Tip of the Week: avoid buzzwords. As you consider potential enquiries you'll likely use some words that need a bit more defining and refining. Your question needs to be related to your practice so being precise is important/1 🧵

I'm thinking of running a free 'Watch and Discuss' session for teachers around these new resources. Would this be of interest?
We are SO looking forward to meeting our new student teachers on our beautiful Ayr and Lanarkshire campuses on Monday. Have a great weekend, students - see you soon!

A really interesting read and still concerning to hear learning styles being talked about despite the lack of evidence in support of this 🙈
Really interesting evidence based article on the myth of learning styles from @KateJones_teach

Educators! What’s been your #PedagooFriday moment this week?
Tag & post the learning highlights from where you are.
We’ll start ⬇️
Today's video is from Digital Orchestra: Edinburgh based at @CCC_ExpArts @CastlebraeCCC is a wonderful example of how the young people have progressed over the course of the year from playing well known songs to writing their own music and improvising.

Practitioner Enquiry Tip of the Week: And stop! Practitioner enquiry should be part of the 9-5 (Dolly's rule) and so when it is the weekend or holidays, you need to press pause. Be kind to self and give yourself permission to say I did enough /1

Another #PractitionerEnquiryTotW from the archives - being stuck!
Practitioner Enquiry Tip of the Week: being stuck. I have pondered what today's tweet should be about and I'm a bit stuck. Nothing's come to mind, no recent chats on topic, my diary is nuts which doesn't help. But being stuck is part of learning.../1
