Hello again @markgoodrich.bsky.social Thank you for ❤️ my #2026kmIn2026 post. In other news, I've also been working on teaching the children in Years 3 to 6 to write a program where the Knight moves around this chess board following the route of the Knight's Tour.

Been a while I know but by some extraordinary out-turn, I have earlier today completed the @gojauntly.bsky.social #2026kmIn2026 challenge this final weekend of September as I did exactly twelve months ago. Goes to show I must be some strange creature of habit with a 7.5km every day average.

12 calendar days away from the first of two papers for #GCSEComputerScience so simply sharing this vocabulary list I wrote from my experience of teaching AQA for those who might either be needing it for their classrooms or offspring. All the very best! drive.google.com/file/d/1jOoS...

I had forgotten how brilliant running an after school Chinese calligraphy club was. 20 supremely enthusastic children aged 4 (yep! Reception) to aged 11 (Year 6). The photograph is of the writing by one of the younger learners.

Welcome back @ms-v-h.bsky.social What Key Stage or subject? I only teach Computing but to all Key Stages from Early Years to GCSE.

Unbelievably excited right now and incredible to think it has been over seven years but because my after school Chinese Calligraphy club makes a return to the wonderful school I work for resuming next week, I've just bought 30 of these 20mm square exercise books...

One of the wonderful aspects of working at a Secondary on Fridays is my @codeclub.bsky.social starts at 3pm and finishes promptly at 4pm so I'm home by just after 5pm having walked to Blackhorse Road Station too...

Doing the double as it were for today's #teacher5oclockclub #morningmugshot #GetUpGetGoing offering. To help those Y11s preparing for Computer Science GCSE first paper in 19 calendar days, difference between bubble and merge sort through the lines of Python programs. Happy Friday

Today's #teacher5oclockclub #GetUpGetGoing offering is a quiz sheet aimed at Year 7 but suitable for end of Year 6 or GCSE preparation about the theory of the Central Processor Unit. Have a fabulous Thursday! docs.google.com/document/d/1...

Thank you @richarddare.bsky.social for ❤️ my #morningmugshot post. Here's what I'm thinking: "by taking a competency based approach rather than measure of age related attainment means that every child has the opportunity to be recognised for some demonstrable level of success and achievement."

Yes. It is a beautifully sunny day outside. But everybody who is expecting me to go out with them is taking their own sweet time. So instead of scrolling around, going to read and write for a bit. Laters!

Hello @slamfitzsimons.bsky.social Been a while. Thank you for ❤️ my essay efforts. In answer to your question, no, despite being top ten Amazon best seller in Teacher Training titles, top 20 in Computing for Young Adults and top 30 for School Leadership. #LearningToLeadComputing

Ta da! @littlemissteach.bsky.social At 2,989 words on a 3,000 word limit. Read. Re-read. Edited. Re-edited and submitted. Don't suppose anybodywill be really interested but based on everything I've read I'm definitely a PISA sceptic or any measure of school performativity...

Allen Tsui @compscitsui.bsky.social · 14/04/2026

So yes @gojauntly.bsky.social The confetti of stars marking the half way tally for the #2MillionSteps tally means potentially reaching the total by the end of July. At almost 10km a day recently too, the #2026kmIn2026 could be achieved by early September. Have certainly stepped up a gear...

Allen Tsui @compscitsui.bsky.social · 12/04/2026

Partcularly ❤️ this one. Thank you @sparkes66.bsky.social for sharing. Happy Sunday! When does your Summer Term resume? Mine starts tomorrow...

I am so (insert vulgar adverb) bourgeois, for the next few weeks, this heavyweight paper carrier bag is the receptacle that has been set for collecting dry recycables in the kitchen for carrying to the wheelie bin... #binfluencing

Allen Tsui @compscitsui.bsky.social · 12/04/2026

Hello again @gojauntly.bsky.social Was thinking too my walking rate means I could achieve #2MillionSteps by July 2026 and as I did in 2025 achieve the #2026kmIn2026 before the clocks go back on 25 October. For now, saw the daffodils still in full beautiful bloom in Green Park this afternoon...

Allen Tsui @compscitsui.bsky.social · 12/04/2026

Good Sunday evening @gojauntly.bsky.social Thank you again for the cascade of stars to celebrate 950K in steps towards the #2MillionSteps and 550K towards #2026kmIn2026 challenges. Yes, the Spring sunshine has enabled the pace to pick up significantly...

Let's add to the surrealism @mrmict.bsky.social My youngest just asked me to buy the books from the Computing Young Adult best sellers ranked at 12 and 13 as he's starting Y10 in September. If I do, it is likely to make our chart position in this category drop...

Allen Tsui @compscitsui.bsky.social · 10/04/2026

Oh! My word! Back in the top ten on Amazon Teacher Training book sales chart?! What a wonderful way @mrmict.bsky.social to start the Summer Term 2026. I feel a book tour coming on... #Top20YAComputers #Top30EdStudiesManagementAndOrg

Not a bad effort for my final weekday off timetable until the next Bank Holiday. 1,659 words into a 3,000 word essay. On target for having the assignment submitted before I return to timetabled duties on Monday. Sounds a bit foolish but have done all I want to with RStudio.

Allen Tsui @compscitsui.bsky.social · 09/04/2026

Am enjoying reading this right now but it hasn't weathered well. Am going to try to get my youngest to read it too as it is good prep for those in KS3 and Y10 understanding concepts for the GCSE Computer Science papers.

Allen Tsui @compscitsui.bsky.social · 09/04/2026

Thank you @bondhack.ft.com for sharing this. I am most definitely able to identify myself as being with what Brené Brown has described as also being "solidly in my fuck it era".

Glad to have attended today's in person tutorial to break the back of the Quantitative Methods in the context of Education 3,000 word end of module assignment due to be submitted by 23 April 2026 at 5pm. Determined to have the assignment completed by the weekend.

I'm running almost an hour behind my planned arrival at College for some in person tutorial time for the Quantitative Methods module. If I'd been earlier, I wouldn't have to endure the anti-social drone being played through the speaker or the phone behind me. On the upside, it's not "Ye"...
