I have king thought that FPL could somehow make a fun and enganging lesson… this wasn’t what I had in mind though! 😂
I asked 28 Year 3 children in my class for some FPL advice which I could send to the FPL twitter community. This is what they came up with: 🧵 (Thread)

Starmer’s speech in short: ✅ Skills ✅ Oracy ✅ Digital literacy ❌ Crumbling buildings ❌ Teacher pay and retention ❌ SEND Does Labour have its priorities for education in the right place? What do you think?
Exclusive: Schools should be held to account for pupils’ attainment in at least one creative or vocational subject, Labour has said, in a document setting out its education 'mission' https://t.co/GT3dw5GJmG

@RogersHistory I’ve long agreed with this. Leadership should be a career path and great class teaching should be too. Too often people progress to SLT because more and more leadership is pushed on them or it’s the only way to earn more not because of a genuine desire to lead a school.

In order to top be a top earner in the profession, I have to leave what I’m good at… actually teaching the kids! It doesn’t make sense…
An opportunity for full time classroom teachers to continue to do the role that they were originally employed to do and potentially earn what SLT, Heads and CEOs do, should exist. Football is a good example. Top footballers can earn infinitely. Top managers can earn infinitely.

Older teachers being driven out of the profession, 71% of young teachers are considering leaving the profession fire to rising housing costs! This CAN’T continue!
Older teachers are being driven out of the profession as a result of discrimination. @NASUWT's survey has revealed that nearly three quarters of teachers aged over 50 have seriously considered leaving the profession during the last year. #NASUWT23

3) Remove High Stakes Step back from the all or nothing way schools and children are assessed. Reform for a model which offers support and improvement not judgement, at every level. Removing league tables won’t make schools want their pupils to do worse. Standards wouldn’t drop.

Ideas to save education, number 1: Every 5 years give teachers a fully funded sabbatical, of one whole term. This could be used to visit settings, research, visit other countries, rest and reflect. If 5 years is a retention crunch point, this might help out in a big way.

No teacher has ever said to me “I’m doing this for my learners with SEND and it’s working well”. They have said “I’ve introduced this into my teaching & it’s really helping the learners with SEND, amongst others”. The best inclusion happens at the whole-class level #inclusion

The Covid-19 closures brought a wealth of technological innovations to teachers. So which do they think will last into the future? https://t.co/7XuKlrJbZ1
