ADHD is thinking about all the things you have to do, getting stressed about all the things, worrying about the consequences of not doing the things, but still feeling stuck and unable to do any of the things.

There are still some work to do to improve things for Deaf teachers & future Deaf teaching students. Hopefully, this will help others to understand what it’s like to be a Deaf teacher. #deafteacher #pgde #primaryteacher #uoepgdep

there is no empirical relationship between a teacher's accent and their ability to teach. but there is a long-standing ideological relationship which frames non-dominant and non-standardised accents as signs of imagined pedagogical illegitimacy.

Very proud to work every year with TIE to explore what LGBT Inclusive Education looks like for our #UoEPGDEp student teachers @morayhouse.bsky.social (and also that we were the first ITE provider in Scotland to host Jordan, back in 2021!). Great to see you over here @tiecampaign.bsky.social !

Attended a brilliant #BESA event this week and one of my highlights was definitely @benniekara.bsky.social 's talk, 'Do we have enough spoons? Resilience in education'. 💡One o the quotes that really stuck with me was: "Be where you are celebrated, not tolerated."👏 @hannahwilson.bsky.social

I was working with some student teachers this week and I talked about the idea of sticking with your values and subverting from within the system. I do believe it's possible and that we move forwards incrementally. Progress is slow for sure but also inevitable, even when we temporarily drop back.

Hey folks - this is your reminder of this important graph from @AdamMGrant. You may be tempted to go above and give it your all, especially if you're an educator at the beginning of the school year, but it's fine to pace yourself and listen to what you need. #teacherwellbeingselfcare

Did removing the graffiti take away peoples voice and their right to expression? Or did it create a platform where more people would view ‘art’ therefore the message they were trying to convey would spread further? #RMEdrift #UoEPGDEp @missjgm.bsky.social
