French and Spanish teacher. I like to play football in the park with my brother. Last weekend I went shopping. Next weekend if it is sunny I would like to swim.
Looking forward to seeing loads of Languages teachers at the @ALL4language London June Event 2025, 21/06/25 10-2 at the Instituto Español Cañada Blanch, 317 Portobello Road, Kensington, London tinyurl.com/alljuneevent25
The fact we can't tell if teacher salaries are meeting minimum wage laws shows we have deep problems with the structure of teacher pay and conditions. The 1265hr deal was a response in the mid 90s to changing employment laws. It needs an overhaul. schoolsweek.co.uk/schools-risk-i…
This really resonates with me. I completely agree with the sentiment about the current state of A-Level; it's recruitment and the seemingly insurmountable difficulty students face in achieving high grades.
Write this post to see if it helped stop feeling sick about the A Level translation. Just made me feel angry. May delete it when I feel less angry. So read it now. How long until we can't in good faith let kids do this course? whoteacheslanguages.blogspot.com/2025/06/really…
Pardon?
Hit a cop, you’re going to jail… doesn’t matter where you came from, how you got here, or what movement speaks to you. If the local police force won’t back our men and women on the thin blue line, we @FBI will.

We can probably all agree with this tweet. But the rest of the thread gets in a bit of a muddle with some parts seemingly deemed more acceptable than others. Look forward to seeing if the blog post straightens it out for me a bit.
It seems so obvious to me visiting schools - everywhere - that there’s just so much mileage in improving everyday responsive teaching practice so that *every* student is engaged, thinking, talking, consolidating, making meaning, achieving a high success rate …
Oh dear. Just when you thought Gibbo couldn't get any worse, he aligns himself to a Trump appointed devotee who knows even less about education than him. A match made in Trumpland. Surely no education professional in the UK can delight in this match? Economies of truth here.
Under Gibb's watch England has: * The unhappiest children in Europe * School is the aspect of life children are least happy with * Reading for pleasure scores plummeted * Never hit teacher recruitment targets * School buildings are crumbling But yeah, phonics 🙄
One of the most important things we should be paying attention to in the US is the way that England, arguably our closest international proxy (similar GDP per person; similar demographics; same language of instruction) has dramatically improved educational outcomes at the same…
