I have a Ukrainian boy in one of my classes who spoke no English in Sep. He’s spent all year silently being helped out by the student next to him in my lessons. Today he put his hand up for the first time to answer a question🥹🥹
Can we just talk about how hard it is to be a teacher and on your period? Specific times that you are able to go to the toilet, duties that interfere with break times and toilet access, dealing with pain whilst teaching. It’s exhausting.

Honestly it was a very special moment. I’ve waited patiently since September for him to have the confidence to give it a go! it’s the little things ey✨
None of my students got a 9, or two grades above what we anticipated. They did however get the results that they deserved and worked hard for individually. Proud teacher 🤩
Finally getting my brand new room brightened up! Little display I made based on one that I saw on Facebook/here I think. I love it! Including my year 11’s reasons to learn languages😊
Am I being silly not applying for jobs that are slightly too far (over an hours drive) from my home but there are barely any jobs in my area???

PGCE course directors: “have a beautiful restful Christmas!!! Relax!!!” Also PGCE course directors: *sets 5,000 word super stressful essay to write for first week of January*
I went to bongos bingo last night and had to do a dance off in front of 900 people to win £1,000. Glad the days I spend embarrassing myself in front of teenagers had prepared me for that exact moment🤣🤣
As an NQT about to start my first year of teaching, should my department have sent me some form of medium term plans or scheme of work? I haven’t been sent anything and I’m getting worried!
Any 20 something teachers fancy making a new friend (me) in the york area? I’ve just moved and don’t know many people nearby. I like cake and coffee and gin🤩

When I was overthinking planning in my training year my mentor suggested using the 5 minute planning tool as well as just going into a lesson with no plan at all a few times…actually worked!
