Wow. What a mess 🍎

A little celebration for me this week. I’ve just published my 2,000th article for @schoolsweek.bsky.social Went to check how many days I’d been working for the paper and 🤯 2,000 days exactly! So that’s an article a day for every calendar day since I started…

Hiya! Are you a parent who is struggling to access AP for your child? Schools Week are looking into it. Feel free to contact @rhistorer.bsky.social or email [email protected] #SEND #thisisAP

My last evening in Sweden, tomorrow I’ll be meeting with staff on municipalities on their digital resources for children with SEND

www.davidptuition.com Specialises in #SEND / #SEMH and has worked extensively in #AP #thisisAP 🍎

Looking into some extra tutoring for a young person - has anyone got experience of either of these companies? Tute Targeted Provision #EduSky @phoenixedsarah.bsky.social I'd appreciate a RP if possible - think they do a lot in #AP 🙏

More than 56,000 people here in the freezing cold. Emirates has sold out every time I’ve been. The growth in women’s football is SO exciting to see ☺️ #arsenal

#EduSky #SEND #SEN When a student is accessing CAMHS, should they be put on the SEND list (under SEMH) by default?

#EduSky

'Children living in the most deprived 8th of neighbourhoods had *300 times* the odds of children in the least deprived eighth of being identified for SEN Support and *76* times the odds of receiving an EHCP.' (EPI report) To what extent is this a part of our conversation? #SEND #SEN #UKteaching 🍎

Interesting article from @schoolsweek.bsky.social. I don’t think Ofsted inspectors can get an accurate picture of behaviour in a challenging school in what usually amounts to a day and a bit of walking around. /1

If you want to know about @teachertapp.bsky.social findings in more detail - just give us a shout!

Exclusive: The vast majority of 'stuck schools' targeted for improvement are already academies – and a third won’t be eligible for help because they’ve already undergone 'structural change' Super analysis from @fcdwhittaker.bsky.social schoolsweek.co.uk/who-are-the-...

Really interesting article - link to the actual reports here www.gov.uk/government/p... 🍎

Love this. Of course there should be a clear list! 🍎

When I started, I had a science dictionary next to me and had to unpick most of the words. It was like translating from another language.

🚨 New! The latest wave of evidence for the SEND Inquiry has ideas from schools, parents and professionals. A short highlights 🧵 . Any that appeal to you (or not)?

This showed up today and even on a quick look through, looked super-useful! Thanks to @phoenixedsarah.bsky.social!

Yes is HIGH! 🍎

I’m looking forward to co-delivering this event next Wednesday! #EduSky #Kidsmh

Wow. Look at what we saw last night at 2:10 am right outside our cabin here in Venetie, Alaska around 30 miles north of the Arctic Circle. Incredible stuff!

Realising I 📌 here so much less than I bookmarked in the other place. Think it’s because there are fewer reports / research articles from authoritative Ed sources here. Anyone else find the same? #EduSky

Student behaviour and Admin tasks are always highest:

47% teacher turnover!!!! In one summer????

Weird things that make my timeline all the time here: Cricket Mushrooms Space images (tho these I love)

🔴 Exclusive: Labour's proposal to give councils more power to check on pupils home educated will be 'significantly insufficient' without further funding. Read more here ⬇️

💸 Early data on school attendance suggests steeper fines for pupil absence have not had a 'meaningful' impact, a union has said

If she can do it, we can all do it.
