Why Responsive Coaching is the Key to Real Change inĀ Schools Letā€™s face it: the world of professional development (PD) for educators can sometimes feel a bit ā€¦ bleugh. Lots of well-intentioned stuff, but nothing to get excited about. But what if we could spice things up a bit? Over the last 10ā€¦

My latest blog inspired by conversations between @Emma_Turner75 , @jon_hutchinson_ and @juliangrenier Take a look and please do share if it triggered a thought šŸ’­ mrstammers.wordpress.com/2024/10/07/b... #edublog #edutwitter #EYFS #UKTeaching

Before the ECF programme begins for my ECTs I have only asked they focus on ā€˜Track the speakerā€™ routines, with no pressure on anything else. What do others focus on in these first few weeks before ECF hubs and weekly meetings begin?

Gutted to be missing on rED in London today šŸ˜” Iā€™ll be stalking X and LinkedIn for any anecdotes and shares of the day. Please share what you learn and are inspired by! šŸ™

Heard of this platform on LinkedIn the other day. Interested to see how the educational support and expertise landscape differed here vs there and Twitter and explore how I can contribute in this. Do we hashtag? Do we @ ? How does this work to find new stuff and get it out to the masses?
