Senedd Member @JulieJamesMS has not responded to the concerns that we have all raised, and so we plan to attend The Senedd on Wednesday 14th July 2021 to protest. We will all meet at 10am outside Ty Hywel building, to raise further awareness. Please join us if you can.
Excellent #everyday #education

Yes, but highest pupil exclusions on record. One of the lowest teacher-autonomy in all OECD countries and teacher applications down 8 years in a row...
Imagine what all schools could have achieved with significant investment over the last decade?
Unprecedented problems require unprecedented solutions. Schools, teachers and leaders have all pulled together to bring about one of the biggest shifts the education sector has ever seen.

Today marks #StDwynwensDay - Wales' very own Valentine's Day.
But who was St Dwynwen, and why is she considered to be the patron saint of lovers in Wales? ❤️️

Teachers, SENCOs, parents, edu-consultants: this is so accurate and lucid. It's not criticism. It's analysis.
Read, save, retweet.
Here’s another thread in my very occasional series of “Ways in which #teachers are unintentionally confusing #autistic children”.
Original thread below (art-related), this time it’s about #Science homework.

This is a thread about #autistic children and ONE of the reasons why school can be difficult/stressful.

When is @Twitter going to ban @KamalaHarris for inciting violence?
If you’re able to, chip in now to the @MNFreedomFund to help post bail for those protesting on the ground in Minnesota.

Big news coming out of Pennsylvania. Very big illegal ballot drop that cannot be accounted for. Rigged Election!
Let’s face it - we don’t live in the Stone Age. Was there a need to inflict deers with wooden arrows and an arduous death? Aren’t there enough slaughterhouses for you to fill your selfish gobhole? #Stoneageman by name and nature @Channel4
You may think your voice/self matters on these big tech outlets (Facebook, Insta, Twitter). In reality, nobody gives a flying monkey - least of all big tech #Censorship2020 #RealityCheck #getreal #BigTechCensorship #BigTech #disinformation #CriticalThinkingisdead
