They say you should never release things on a Sunday as engagement is rubbish, but I have finally gotten around to writing why I think we need a healthy does of scepticism around AI in Education. > t.co/y29zavcz4E Let me know your thoughts.

Here's the pitch: Almost every primary school I've encountered is worried about the effectiveness of their approach to teaching reading after phonics and whether it provides pupils with engaging reading experiences. My book offers a tried-and-tested alternative.

My new book, Primary Reading Simplified, is released this Monday. Briefly, I'd like to explain why it exists, who I think will find it useful and where you can find it. >>

Big take away for me this weekend at #TDaPElive was @garein.bsky.social and his honesty and humility as a leader. Someone I genuinely look up to. Was also wonderful to chat @mradamkohlbeck.bsky.social and Sarah Cottinghat - such smart thinkers. Well done Macks mate.

On my way to #TDaPE London. Looking forward to meeting other 'time-poor but enthusiasm-rich teachers' and hearing what they've got to share about school improvement. All in aid of a good cause, too. See you there and thank you for organising @kieran-m-ed.bsky.social @lwilliamsjones.bsky.social.

‘Children with SEND deserve more than our compassion. They deserve our competence.’ Wallop. Have some of that good stuff. Top drawer as always from Cass.

Friday morning briefing, throw one of these out. Add it to the board. Come back to them week on week. Build staff sharing of examples. Helps culture. Big love to @suchmo83.bsky.social for a load of these. It’s the little things that add up to the big things.

Following a few requests from teachers and school leaders, I've made a short video on the key ideas that I think teachers (and parents/carers) need to know about reading development, based on my reading concept map. youtu.be/JvtUxB5WM1k?...

For 12 pounds quid I would urge you to support John Robins. This is a clever and, at times, wrenching/ endearing piece of comedy centred on his struggle with alcoholism.

Had such a great day today at #rED24: My favourite things from this year: @pepsmccrea.bsky.social on brain gym; building belonging through shared social norms and the power of shared norms between staff … @mralmonded.bsky.social on letter formation diagnostics- can they copy x - if not look deeper.

Lovely to see @scottinghatt.bsky.social being mentioned by @lwilliamsjones.bsky.social. These questions need answering when we start implementing something new. Is it what we need? Do we have the evidence? How do we know it’ll work? Collect the data first.
