If schools are closed, I’ll do my job and teach remotely. If schools are open, I’ll do my job and teach in person...I reckon this is the same for almost all school workers. But the disdain for teachers/school staff beggars belief 😔🤦🏻‍♂️ #teachers #schoolsnevershut #edutwitter – at Aston, England

I have had lots of teachers asking me if they can use my children’s stories to make online videos for their pupils. Normally you have to get the author’s permission but please feel free to do whatever you like with my books at this time. Use them at toilet paper if that helps. x

It does seem the majority of secondary schools are starting GCSEs in Year 9, even though Ofsted suggested it’s not a good idea. buff.ly/2TT95vB
