Is there anything that feels better as a teacher when someone external from the school says how polite and kind your class are? Every single child thanked our coach driver for driving them today, without being asked, & he was chuffed. "Your kids are so polite!" Love my class! #edusky

How do schools make PPA from home work? E.g. what about the year group who have PPA when a staff meeting is on? Is it suggested PPA from home should be allowed or is it an actual thing you can demand to have? Grateful for any insight on this! #edusky

Would love to know what fellow teachers think about this: Is Middle Leadership Ever Worth It? When I started out teaching, I just assumed I'd work up the ladder. I couldn't be less interested now. Ridiculous workload & terrible money. It's a no from me! #edusky open.spotify.com/show/2G4n8Tj...

I posted this on Instagram and someone commented "You won't get a job with that attitude!" 1) I've been in continuous employment since I was 16 2) If setting boundaries outside of working hours means I can't have the job, then I don't want it Sometimes, just say no. That's enough. #edusky

In class today, a child whipped some kind of card out of their desk and passed it to a friend opposite. I saw it and asked what it was... It was an *actual* Uno reverse card 😂 They were serving it to a pupil to reverse them asking to pass the worksheet over 😂 Can't say I didn't laugh 👀 #edusky

I enjoy Bluesky much more than I ever liked Twitter, especially since it became X But... How long will it last? The same people will just create accounts here and toxic attitudes will stay, right? Or is this place really different enough? (Blocking, no algorithm, ads etc) #edusky
