'But in rushing to “save” them, we may actually be denying them the very thing that could help them learn: having enough time to think deeply about your question and successfully retrieving the answer.' The power of pause!

I’m pretty sure every woman leader has had a cry at work. We are human. When our work matters, and we care about it, we feel it. #imwithrachel

What happens when we feel we belong? At High Performance Learning global conference, @profkime.bsky.social explored how belonging, drawing from Bantu African-origin value systems, fuels learning. It’s not optional. It’s essential. What’s one way you help students feel they belong?

My daughter is taking great pleasure in telling me about the water cycle. I'm having to pretend I'm learning this for the first time, although everything she knows, I already know. Joys of parenting.

📢 New Blog 📢 How do parents’ beliefs about study techniques impact their children’s learning? 🧠 Research shows the strategies parents value can shape kids' habits for years. Read the full thing here:

How parent and guardian beliefs shape children’s study habits | InnerDrive
When it comes to study habits, we often focus on what happens in the classroom. However, sometimes the most impactful learning happens at home.

Thanks you @hugheshaili.bsky.social for this brilliant summary. It does continue to paint a worrying picture for the profession we so very much love. I'm hoping that this will, once again, open the dialogue around workload, but, more importantly, lead to action.

I often hear educational leaders who say they 'accidentally stumbled into educational leadership.' I've always been intentional about my leadership journey and never heard a BAME leader accidentally stumbling into a leadership role. Are there any BAME leaders who have?
