Continuing Professional Development (or Continuing Professional Self Development as Ian Gilbert discusses in his ‘Why Do I Need a Teacher When I’ve got Google?‘ book… CPD has changed its appearance. Not a sheep in wolf’s clothing. Not at all. But no longer is it about one of the senior leadership team…
TeachMeets are always a special occasion. Teachers being brave, sharing things from their classroom or personal learning journey…. What can I say – another brilliant event at the Quintin Kynaston school for #TMLondon. Expertly organised by Diane Leedham, Amjad Ali, Andy Lewis, Martin Burrett, Bennie Kara, myself; crafted by Ross McGill…
I was really pleased when Pete Jones asked me to create a presentation for a Teachmeet he was hosting at his school. I’m going to Jersey to do a number of bits of work this year so it was a great opportunity to connect albeit remotely with some of the…
