This is a brilliant blog, expertly written with guidance on effective assessment design. A must read for HODs and those who LM HODs. Thank you @DavidDidau
Assessment isn’t a post-mortem. It’s the lifeblood of teaching. Specify what counts, teach it, check it, fix it. Stop sorting, start teaching. Make 100% possible for everyone. New piece on five principles of assessment that actually improve teaching 👇

Brilliant blog on how SLT teams can ensure consistency to ensure Inclusion. I'd highly recommend other blog posts by @Ms_L_White
Schools move forward with urgency and every adult has a choice: get on board or get out of the way. The same is true of consistency. If even one adult steps out of line, the whole ship judders. https://t.co/MG4aQSEYH8

Great blog by @AlexJQuigley with a timely reminder that adaptive teaching must build in opportunities to stretch and challenge through task design, questioning and reflection.

Excellent blog which very much mirrors my views on inclusion being about all pupils being in lessons, learning.
In too many schools, "support" has become a quiet permission to step away from learning. Side rooms. Exit cards. Safe spaces. Extra adults. Somewhere along the way, we stopped asking the obvious question: why are we removing children from the very place where they’re meant to

Do take 5 minutes to read the full speech on curriculum. Beautifully powerful writing by the queen of narrative. Thank you @Counsell_C
The 'curse of knowledge': again and again, I see this prevent the curricular thoroughness necessary for inclusion. This is from my speech to @Education_NI on role of curriculum in school improvement. Full speech is here: https://t.co/ak8dlnEERH
