#OnThisDay in 1616, Pope Paul V warned Galileo against teaching that the Earth orbits the Sun. He was later convicted of heresy and spent the last decade of his life under house arrest until his death in 1642. 'And yet it moves,' he purportedly said after being forced to recant his claims.

Thrilled to be a part of this working party. Thank you TDT for the opportunity. Teacher development and retention are critical issues in building a healthy, sustainable education system. It’s time for a mature conversation about how we teach our teachers. www.tes.com/magazine/ana...

5 different emails from recruitment agencies today, offering me ECTs - PLEASE don’t come via agencies, just come and drop in - we welcome visitors. We aren’t the polished, slick school yet but we’re great to work for, full of heart and keen to get better. I won’t waste public money on finders fees!

Yeah seems pretty obvious to me that this huge gender divide in the politics of young people is being driven by men's rights / manosphere videos that act as a gateway into alt right politics.
