StarlightMcKenzie Therein lies the problem - our actual evidence as teachers is dismissed as anecdotes because we can’t actual give dates and times due to confidentiality. So we are just dismissed as not telling by the truth.

A mother on BBC Scotland News this morning complained she hated the term 'challenging behaviour' as it was just her child 'expressing herself'. She wasn't talking about an educ setting but we see this everyday. What of the staff & other children facing this behaviour? Scottish Government

The female teacher who lost her life in the school shooting never had kids. They were her kids. It was her birthday so she baked a cake for them and ordered pizza to celebrate. And then was murdered.

Edna Krabapple πŸ’™ cameron wyllie Mr. Brown Scottish Government SQA That was a recommendation that Ken Muir made in his report. However, Scot Gov have a draft bill suggesting that it will be just a newly branded SQA (same leadership) and a new independent inspectorate (probably a rebrand as well). Β£15 million for no reform, just rebranding.

You can say do this, do that, but without acknowledging the lack of resources (people) and the pressure of inspection, it’s condescending to say the least! Inspections aren’t about kids just targets! 😞

Today marks an important day for Clinically Vulnerable Families. We are participating in the healthcare section of the Covid Inquiry. It is a key moment, as we fight for vital protections against an ever-present constantly evolving airborne threat to health. #CovidIsAirborne

We submitted a FOI request to South Lanarkshire Council asking: β€œIn the last 5 years, how many NQTs secured a permanent post after their probationary year?” Their response? A bill for Β£3,400, claiming it would take 250 hours of staff time to retrieve this information

Don’t let the SNP propaganda machine deceive you the SNP who have been given money already for this years pensioners winter fuel allowance have decided to take that away from the Scottish pensioners. They are trying to deflect the blame onto WM.

Can we get back to the priorities in #Scottish education & not allow our political leaders to deflect. Behaviour, class sizes, recruitment, workload are the main issues that must be addressed.

Mr. Brown Empower:ED Scotland tim fredericks Edna Krabapple πŸ’™ Teaching With My Eyes Shut 🦩 We are all agreeing far too much on far too many issues! I'm increasingly concerned that as we stand here at the tip of an enormous iceberg it is only going to get worse for learners and staff alike. How long can we sweep the mess under the carpet before we trip over it?

🌻 🌻 🌻 🌻 🌻 🌻 Mr. Brown tim fredericks Edna Krabapple πŸ’™ Teaching With My Eyes Shut 🦩 Totally agree and at huge personal cost to teachers, children and young people, parent and carers. Teachers are parents too. We need to move away from teachers versus parents rhetoric, it’s all our children’s futures that are at stake here and Scotlands future workforce.
