#edutwitter I'm constantly inspired and reassured on here by a plethora of wonderful ideas and amazing people. My current preoccupation is with how we break OUT of the Twitter bubble and get these messages to those who (for valid reasons) might not engage with Twitter 1/
The reality is that many, many teachers and schools have fallen victim to the defence/attack mode in the light of new Ofsted perceived expectations, and some of the good work on retention risks being eroded 2/
There are many schools which, far from moving towards a more humane model based on trust are in fact INCREASING performativity measures, and I'm already hearing of new teachers wanting to walk away 3/
I have long held the view that we need to sit tight and hold our own and wait for things to change at govt level, but now believe we need to make noise from the grassroots - as @AdrianBethune says, 'we are not stuck in traffic - we are traffic'
Any ideas as to how we can ACTIVELY engage those who are struggling (and I have huge sympathy with HTs who are) and ensure they actively take on the ideas of @HannayJeremy and @RaeSnape and so many others... WHICH WORKa and make teaching the joyful job it IS and MUST BE. 5/
@HannayJeremy @RaeSnape SO, watch this space. There may be a big, noise-making event coming and I'm going to be blatantly picking brains for ideas, from the practical to the outrageous. Because #thereisanotherway and the system can no longer sustain these shocking attrition rates
