Teaching is an act of faith and hope. We plant our seeds and we water our gardens, but what grows there is often beyond our control.

I hate to be that person, but just imagine a school that was getting Ofsteded this week, in July, so close to the end of term, in a heatwave, after half of staff and students being up all night on Sunday. And after a Yr6 Transition Evening last night. Imagine that. So, whose school might that be...? #Education #ukeducation #SecondaryEducation #Ofsted #edutoot #Edutooters

Just a massive congratulations to anyone in education - both staff and students - who got through this week in the UK. What a week. And with so, so much anti-teacher rhetoric in the media and online. We did our best. ☀️ #Teaching #SecondaryTeaching #Education #EduTooters #UKEducation
