Anyone have suggestions for picking a research project for their doctoral thesis? Feel like I have too many interests haha #EdPsychs

Congratulations Pippa!!! Such a relief for you I'm sure to not have that on top of your work. You'll be such an asset wherever you go

Hope it's not a bad omen that I've started my TEP journey with a cold and a fever #EdPsychs

Last few days before I start the doctorate course and I don't know what to do with myself. Definitely coming down with something though, great timing. #EdPsychs

Different process in Ireland I'm afraid. Did apply with the English system three times but never got a place.

And just like that it's suddenly my last few days at work in England before moving back to Ireland to start the Doctorate in Child and Educational Psychology. To say it's a bag of mixed emotions is an understatement. Don't know where the time has gone. #EdPsych

What a fabulous day we have had with a lot of our ELSAs at our conference today. We wanted to shine a light on them and the amazing work they do throughout Wakefield and to remind them of how amazing, strong, and skilled they are. Real life everyday heros!! #EdPsychs #ELSAConference2025

So many people on my team talk about how amazing Sure Start was and how they feel like going back to a system like that would have such a positive impact. #edpsychs

Still in complete shock, but so happy to share that I will be moving back to Ireland and starting as a Trainee Educational and Child Psychologist in September!!!! #EdPsychs

Would love to know more about education psychologists stance/view on the current 24 hour sleep out at Leinster House around the lack of suitable school spaces available in Ireland currently #EdPsych #EdChatIE

How kind of you, thank you. I've applied for Mary I this year, but yet to hear anything back from them ☺️

Kate @katetep.bsky.social · 01/04/2025
I have chatted things through with supervision. I think I've left it a bit late and now experiencing illness and all sorts from being so run down, so my body is forcing me to slow down. But really appreciate your words

Back to the drawing board I guess. Any suggestions on how to evaluate my personal statement or interview is much appreciated #edpsychs

Really looking forward to joining #PositivITEA later today. I feel like I'm in real need of having the space to explore gratitude with @viola-jane.bsky.social. I feel we get so caught up on the interview process and focusing on the failures that we forget the positive side of the process. #EdPsychs

Filled this out a few weeks ago, best of luck with it. Very excited to see the results

It's just what always made sense to me. Like the grief is always there and hurts just as much, it just doesn't occupy my whole life anymore

Volunteering for a bereavement charity once a week is a nice weekly reset and reminder of why I do my job. Made a mother quite emotional explaining this theory earlier. Always resonates with me #edpsychs

Such an interesting question. I feel like growing up bored was such a bad worse, like you weren't allowed to be bored. I imagine with technology the new version of boredom is mindlessly scrolling

It really does need more places funded, Manchester had 435 people apply for 23 places this year, but then services are struggling massively. It's just baffling

Kate @katetep.bsky.social · 31/01/2025
That's exactly it, isn't it. Just takes up so much time and is so drawn out. I still have one to hear from but at this point I'm so exhausted by the whole thing I've just given up

It's so sad, isn't it. Honestly considering other career options currently. Sending all the love
