Working with @ogdentrust today for new partnership induction, as we plan for our programme starting in September across all @CoopAcademies primary, secondary and special schools. 🔭. Lovely Rochdale link too - where Sir Peter Ogden grew up, and of course our Rochdale pioneers 🩵

RT @stpea808: I had a visit from two lovely technicians who work at Co-op Academy Walkden. When I found out they were both #physics special….

🤝True collaboration in our Trust yesterday as the whole science team from @WalkdenCoop (yes inc techs!) were hosted by @coopbellevue, obvserving lessons and having the space to think and plan together. 💭. Massive thanks to @matthackerr and @SFL2326 for making it happen. 🎉.

Working @coopbellevue today, a student came up to me…. “Tell me about Physics at Oxford”. 15mins later, we’d discussed the tutorial system, the challenges, the requirements, and how she could find out more about physics now. I thought that was it until this appeared… 🩵

Sending well wishes to all our @CoopAcademies GCSE students, and around the country, currently sitting their first Science exam 🥼📝. This year I’ve seen first hand the hard work of staff @CoopAcademyNM preparing students - including @DMcIntyreSci and Dr Matis running.

Think this was fairly unique - joining up science and maths trainees 🥼🧮. So much to learn from each other. And only a slightly heated debate over what constitutes a “line of best fit”…. 😬. We had science and maths trainees from @swintoncoop, I’m excited to see them work more.

Fantastic day with @CoopAcademies @BF_SCITT Maths and Science trainees. We explored each others curriculum and teaching approaches to more effectively support each other and ultimately students. Thanks for making it happen @_AndyGibson and our maths directors Jo and Jay

It was visits like this that slowly convinced me anything was possible and set me on a path to @UniofOxford @jesus_access - which was 100% the right path for me. And might be for some of these student too. These visits sit within the wider package of what we do as teachers to.

Posted this earlier, but now for the evening crowd!. I remember stumbling into this advert two years ago, and wondering how much of a “unique opportunity” it really was. But it really is. Science, through a senior leader lens, developing curriculum, pedagogy, people. Come join.
