Quick – dangerous ideologies are storming the beaches. Has anyone reserved a sun-lounger? This week’s column by Stewart Lee www.thenerve.news/p/stewart-le...

“At a Normandy D-Day commemoration, Pete Hegseth noted that beaches were stormed in 1944 and are being stormed by ideologies now. The two events share precisely one feature, and that is sand”: Stewart Lee on Hegseth and Europe

My #3goodthings for today 1. I enjoyed teaching maths and writing today ☺️ 2. A fab after school session with @hywelroberts.bsky.social - productive pedagogies, fostering curiosity, and botheredness! 🤩 3. A tough but good upper body tone class 😃 Share your #3goodthings if you wish.

Three good things I am grateful for today written around two rainbows forming a circle with a red heart in the centre. Created by me!

I have been reflecting on all the discussions had yesterday at the workshop presented by @hywelroberts.bsky.social. Currently reading the book ‘Botheredness’ and planning how I can work the pedagogy into my own practice. #EduSky #Botheredness

The cover of the book, ‘Botheredness’ by Hywel Roberts. The cover is a drawing of waves with one shark fin visible above the water.

Myself and Hywel Roberts selfie after the workshop. We both have a ‘cat got the cream’ grin!

Taking down the tree and re-finding this. It’s the The Chapel at Bretton Hall College in Wakefield where I did my degree and PGCE many years ago. Funny how a little thing like this can evoke so much.

🧵 "What's the one thing you'd change about your learners?" Over the years I've asked this question to 1000's of teachers and school leaders. The answer is *almost always* a variation on a theme: ‘I wish they were more independent’ ‘I wish they were more resilient’

‘I wish they were more motivated to learn’ But what if we don't need a magic wand? What if it's possible to teach in such a way that students develop these qualities?
