I am very excited about seeing the collaborations the @DTassoc has created 👀 and the context that have been produced for students.

Our annual Summer Showcase took place earlier this month.
It showcased the outstanding work created by our Art, DT, Textiles, Product Design, and Food Technology students throughout the year and was then followed by live performances by Drama and Music students in the theatre.
What an amazing idea 👏🏼
We celebrated our Year 11s today. We are so proud of them, they have matured into the most wonderful people. We love our exhibition book which showcases every single child’s journey in D&T, Food, CS and IT @AcadHethersett 🌟 Good luck class of 2023… see you in August! 🎉

Great to deliver a session on identifying end points in ks3 D&T with @WeAreInBetaPod and @FrancesLing Looking forward to the next session with the other members.
Excellent evening developing sketching skills for a self confessed ‘terrible drawer’. Cannot wait to further develop this in students without joking ‘how bad I am’ or ‘you’ll be much better than me’
Thank you @educationCPD, now time for practice, practice and more practice!

LOUDER 👏
The whole education system would collapse if teachers worked to rule… – at North West, England
One last time for the people at the back (and @Telegraph).
1,265 is not the total number of hours teachers work per year. It’s the total number of hours they can be told *where* to work.
If teachers only did those hours, the school system would collapse.
Toasting to the year 11 Nea FPN students tonight who’ve competed their practical exams the last three days. Absolutely outstanding work ethic with plenty of high level skills shown! I’m so proud of them all @jtfreeschool. Praise postcards and a little treat are on their way👏🏼
Really interesting opinions shared 🤔 it’ll be very interesting if we can actually get all state holders involved!
