Great to hear of those being offered interviews for DEdPsy programmes. Good luck to all. If you were looking for some lived experience of the process of becoming a Trainee EP you might be interested in this PsychBites episode!

Really enjoyed recording this episode with Dan. A lot of food for thought around what types of evidence we might be using in practice and what biases might exist… I’ll ignore the confusion Star Wars and Star Trek @psychbites.bsky.social, but I will prepare some essential reading / watching for you!

Calling all families impacted by parental imprisonment! I am recruiting children and young people to discuss their experiences of parental imprisonment as part of my doctoral thesis. Please see the attached poster for more information and feel free to share. #edpsych #parentalimprisonment #Edusky

Whoever thought of putting a copper coloured set of poppers on a baby grow, my baby thanks you!

Phonological-only reading instruction works, but not as well as print-based approaches, is—unsurprisingly—more effective for phonological awareness than word reading and, again perhaps unsurprisingly, works less well in preschool: bit.ly/4ffN4AJ ($)

Fab morning being hosted by the @psychbites.bsky.social team! We talked all things "evidence based practice" #edpsychs

Have long loved this - we talk about 'visuals' with schools & families alllll the time, but what do we mean, & why? #EdPsychs

Happy to share that PsychBites podcast is now on Bluesky! Give them a follow if interested in educational psychology and looking for relaxed, bite size listening you can get into on your commute.

Thanks @edpsy.bsky.social for leading on this, going to be hard to switch and break a longtime habit!
