Our MA in Children's Literature at Goldsmiths is inching towards becoming a course that people will be able to access remotely. Distance Learning. O yes. Watch this space. Along with our other great teachers, I'm becoming remote. As it were.

After many interviews with 20+ years teachers, retention is about community, belonging and relatedness. I have been lucky to feel this in schools but have also been bullied by a toxic leader. Reminds me of the most personal blog I ever wrote: theinkedscholar.blogspot.com…

For CPD on picturebooks, booktalk, and comprehension, I've created bookmarks for potential discussion points on 'Door' by JiHyeon Lee. The idea is that they can flexibly be used by pupils/teachers #BookTalk #Comprehension #Picturebooks
👏🏻 👏🏻👏🏻⬇️ Also, this narrative perpetuates the deskilling ‘scripted programmes’ approach which is damaging to the profession.

Return to office mandates don't just motivate junior people to jump ship. They lose talent at the top too.
When tech companies started requiring attendance, senior leaders were more likely to leave for competitors.
Flexibility is an investment in retention at all levels.

I have no idea where this video is from. I found it on Reddit, but this explains humanity so well.
This man walks into a Chinese Restaurant for takeout. He immediately begins speaking perfect Chinese, with a perfect accent.
He has a conversation with the staff, who calls him "one of us," and then they proceed to give him his food for free.
This is humanity. Everyone should take a chance to learn about others, identify with others, and empathize with others. We often see more racist people in small towns rather than in large cities. This isn't necessarily their faults.
This is because racism is mostly built on "the unknown" and people tend to fear the unknown. Once you get to know people and befriend people from other races, religions, sexual orientations, gender ideologies, and ethnicities, you have a tendency to better understand where they come from.
This is why learning about other cultures, religions, and even languages is so important. It's why studying history, and sociology are important.
Reach out to someone you don't identify well with and try to learn about them today. It will help humanity tomorrow.
