    If youโ€™re thinking about leaving the classroom, try a change of school first. If youโ€™re sure you want to try something else and donโ€™t know where to look, I update #Edujobs every Sunday morning - itโ€™s now here docs.google.com/document/d/1g3โ€ฆ for you any time to see the latest gems.

    Proud of my kid who was in there somewhere. Itโ€™s not true that we Jews are quaking in our boots from the protests against the genocide in Gaza. Any self-respecting Jew will of course stand with the oppressed and not the oppressors and against ethnic cleansing

    Meanwhile in Finland, they gave rough sleepers a flat with no strings attached and solved 99% of rough sleeping, enabled people to go back to studying and work.
    The UK Government is trying to pass new laws that would criminalise sleeping on the streets with a fine up to ยฃ2,500, or even prison.

    Replying to @DrJFTFernandes
    Gosh I am so mortified that this happened to you. Welcome to the U.K. indeed. Our racism will be the death of us all.

    In case you are still saying โ€˜itโ€™s complicatedโ€™ or are worried about offending your (imagined) Israeli and/or Jewish friends, hereโ€™s some clarity. I am your Israeli Jewish friend and I say #FreePalestine
    The BBC are disgusting. The manner in which they dehumanise Palestinians and are so dismissive of their guests. Well done @DrHananAshrawi for schooling them.

    Dear headteachers, I canโ€™t imagine what youโ€™re going through right now but if it helps I have DBS, have had Covid in the last 3 months, have a bicycle and can make myself available within 10km of my home in Tottenham if anyone needs help with mass testing at their school. DM me.

    Thread on the DfE political impartiality in schools guidance ๐Ÿงต The guidance states that "When teaching pupils about racism, teachers should be clear that racism has no place in our society and help pupils to understand facts about this and the law."

    My advice to you on this rainy Friday

    Schools, go easy on kids when it comes to uniform, lateness, homework, alertness in lessons - people are making decisions about food, heat and rent that can impact on studentsโ€™ abilities to keep it together on all of these and more. Find out where each of your families is.

    This isn't a joke. It is so many levels of dismissal, racism, othering, laziness, disrespect, double standards (if you can say Tchaikovsky and Loughborough...) Shola is an absolute model of dignity and strength as she insists on having her name pronounced right. It is PHONETIC.
    Auntie Shola said we're not moving on until you pronounce my name right.

    You know when you open a pot of pesto, use a teaspoon of it and the rest goes mouldy in the back of the fridge? THIS will change your life forever. Thank me later.
