Yes this. Students are engaged when they know their teacher is passionate about the subject; that positive contagion is key. Centralised planning and resources support workload but teachers should know they can adapt.

Evidence-informed teaching has to be built around each teacher's personality and desire for autonomy; let's celebrate that. @walkthrus.bsky.social teacherhead.com/2024/01/07/e...

Let's please try not to start weeks with 'Only blah blah weeks/ days until half term...' imho this causes such a negative contagion among staff and students.

@skynews.com.web.brid.gy Headline: 'Policeman in hospital after collision with a car' Reality: Policeman in hospital after being deliberately targeted and knocked down by someone driving a car Again, ambiguity when police are injured and yet sensationalised headlines when police do anything.

Yoga during summer break is like being on holiday abroad - you have to anticipate mats down in the same way you do towels around a pool!! Got here half hour earlier than normal and still had to squish in.
