Cheeky one to start a long weekend? Go on then!

Had the night off and, apart from planning lessons, did nothing else and instead had a photography session with my daughter. Literally the first night off in 3 weeks and I feel so much better! Lesson...always take time for yourself.

Before school, break time (or recession for those from America) lunch time, after school...marking, marking, marking. Mock exam time is always busy. Only another 24 LP1s to go. 😬

Having a dog is the greatest relaxation tool you can have.

My Sunday. Marking is essential but THE most utterly boring and time consuming part of the job.

When you're entire school's focus is changing, it's hard to know where to start in your own leadership role. And what happens if your priority isn't the same as your line manager's?

Getting ready to go back to school. Really looking forward/not looking forward to it!

I have officially watched every minute of the premier league season so far! It won't be the same by the end of tomorrow!

Looking to update my language paper resources, any recommendations on where to start??

Can anyone recommend any good online training for teaching organic chemistry at A level? Since my colleague left who taught all the organic I've been left teaching it, but it's not my strength - I'm better at Physical and Inorganic. I could do with brushing up my knowledge and skills #ChatChemistry

In Leicester we start our teacher days next week. I always get overwhelmed with emotional oxymorons at this time.
