I’ve started a new student revision booklet. We’ll introduce it to KS4 first & then tailor it down to KS3. Used lots of @MissSayers1 inspiration work 👏. To avoid genericism, will ground with subject examples of strategies in action First page is on the Science of Learning

In a day where I had my last ever form with Y11, who I’ve had since my first day (I cried 😂) and some brilliant cards/letters (which also made me cry!) - this just set me off yet again! A Disney guide from a Year 11 who knows it’s my first time to Florida this summer 😍
