Here's the top 10 tips I give ECTs when it comes to starting out in their teaching career so that they can find pleasure and purpose in what they do without burning out. But it also applies to experienced teachers and school leaders as useful reminders.🧵 1. Prioritise your wellbeing. Entering a profession that experiences stress at levels higher than the national average means you need to take extra care of yourself. No one can do this for you. This is your responsibility. It can't wait until weekends or the holidays. Do it daily

I made these @PenguinUKBooks Classic book covers in #lockdown but never used them. Here you go.

At number 1 we have 'Low Expectations' the story of a rich privileged boy who grows up to be a criminal who lies to the Queen. At number 2, 'Dithering Heights'. When a man who was sacked for lying and sharing defence secrets is put in charge of the nation's children & their futures it can only go one way. His mettle will be put to the test (excepts all tests are cancelled. Or are they?!)
