In the last five years, I have taught…
2018/19 - Year 1
2019/20 - Year 2
2020/21 - Year 1
2021/22 - Year 1
2022/23 - Year 1
And for the academic year 2023/24 it’s going to be ….you guessed it …YEAR 1 🤐
I generally love year 1 I won’t lie! 😂

News just in! NEU officially accepts government pay offer of 6.5%! 86% of members have voted yes to accepting the pay offer. No more strikes in the autumn term.
This is not Section 28 coming back again….this is a lot worse. If these reports are true…this not only allows the abuse of trans children, but it does not protect such a small minority of children against the hate in this world. As a teacher, I do not stand by this!!!
There is one word in this years phonics test that is just so so cruel. Most kids won’t even know what it is and it’s ridiculous to make a 5 year old read it…even my greater depth didn’t get it!
MEAN!
I have a link governor meeting this week at school all about my subject (SMSC). I have a feeling they are trying to get me OFSTED ready but honestly the anxiety of this…I feel sick!!
Any help greatly appreciated.
Does anyone have any questions/answers for SMSC?
I just can’t. I can’t write anything without wanting to use expletives 🤬
👑The Department for Education will spend more than £350,000 on flower seeds to help primary schools mark the coronation
The announcement comes in the same week that schools faced their 6th day of strike action by members of @NEUnion over teacher pay

I used to be a massive @karren_brady fan!! But to negatively comment on something that she has no idea about is atrocious. Not only are teachers striking for Better pay conditions but most teachers are striking for a better education for our kids. Karen - you are privileged. 😴

Our school took part in the @PopnOlly teacher training today as a whole school. From admin staff, teachers, lunchtime supervisors, maintenance, lunch staff, teaching assistants. The training was ‘Fabulous’ and received well by all staff. 🌈❤️

I keep seeing prison education job and honestly I think it maybe a sign. Something about that really interests me! Been reading about it for a long time. Any prison educators on twitter?
A child in my class drew a beautiful piece of art today! It’s ‘Willy’ good! 😂 #teacherlife #edutwitter
Does anyone still get patronised in their jobs based on their age? I’m 30…teaching for 8 years but apparently I’m young and need to listen to my people with more experience ☠️😫🥲 #edutwitter

To me, #WorldBookDay isn’t just about sharing the books we love, but understanding that we have the power to write our own stories in life - so today we did just that! My class are Little People, with Big Dreams💭 (sorry, bit deep for a Thursday night)
The witch had a cat and a very tall hat, And long ginger hair which she wore in a plait. #WorldBookDay #WorldBookDay2023 📚♥️
I need to make a little come back to Teacher Twitter! I’ve just been so busy lately and sometimes twitter can be very overwhelming. I’m back! What did I miss? #education #edutwitter #teacherlife ♥️📚✏️
