@s8mb This is why when people say UC is percieved hard with the assumption too the students are super clever. I challenge them...its only the viewer. A true Hard quiz for viewer and contestant is standard series of OC.

@adamboxer1 @mprez22la Why not do booklets by units, those then get treasury tagged. Each booklet topic is max 8 lessons. Can always correct the following year. So supports Adams point but also yours, a middle ground.

@KTG_1990 Interestingly it's a skill that is never used anywhere else as skill. We are actively unpicking this at Alevel when they write chronologically for a Unit 3 OCR Thematic Essay. "Use synthesis for an argument" - it's pointless. It's not far from "Make up a fictional story using OK"

One for the Quizzer Community. Is there a name for the effect whereby you get a question wrong in a quiz and forever after you see the question pop up so many times again and again from TV to Pub. Must be a name for it. If not what can it be called.

@OneFootinthePod The very best episode of One Foot. Could talk for England on thst one episode.

@OneFootinthePod I'll take what he's having (The Window Cleaners chilli drink)

@OneFootinthePod For me it's Mrs Elburys party keeping victor awake along with the Christmas crackers

It's that time of the year on TV. "YOU MAY NOT CONFER!!!"

@OneFootinthePod Any relation to Broad Maud?

@MiguelHutch @markeaden88 Sounds brilliant. Didnt realise was in early stages and created by yourself. We are based in Devon, arse end of country. Always going to hold us back.

@OneFootinthePod 1. Laughing Policeman Scene 2. Cracker & Finland Scene 3. Victor getting drunk over backgammon

@the_real_osg True but how regimented and protected was the Thursday one to avoid the casual mobile phone brigade taking 1st or 2nd...

@MiguelHutch Sure you would have nailed the jackpot questions for 500£

@Headteacherchat Teaching doesn't have any unique problems that can't be found in a another job. It's just those other jobs singularly don't have the critical mass of problems teaching does. "My job has problem x!!" - Yet it doesn't have problem y!

@juliasanders7 @CazAJ83 @ShakinthatChalk 7 parents evenings. Correct. But it is not just that is it. I lost count how many times I cancelled things because of some backlog; exam marking, extra meetings, open evening, mock marking, tutor evenings, exam board feedback zooms, extra meetings, Ofstead. Your right"inflexible"

@juliasanders7 @CazAJ83 @ShakinthatChalk Lets use your 13 weeks of shunting Non teaching: 50 Hours a week (discounting sleep) x 52 weeks (- 13 weeks) = 1,950 hours "Guarenteed" Teachers: 50 hours a week (discounting sleep) x 13 Weeks = 600 Hours "Guarenteed" The job doesn't Gaurentee my kids have my time.
