It’s time to leave Twitter/X. It is becoming a dangerous platform. I now question the presence of educational groups and others in that sector remaining on what is becoming extremely right wing. However, when I try and leave, it doesn’t let me! Anyone with same issues. Suspicious

Massive thank you for the hundreds of messages I’ve received & interest from Journalists about my story. This story resonates with so many #teachers bullied out of their careers for either being disabled, UP3 or female! Or exposing safeguarding concerns.
I turned down £30,000 to keep my truth, participated in a sham hearing. Bullying needs to be exposed. It’s hard to believe bullying isn’t unlawful!
This Headteacher called my ocd ‘mind vomit’ 🤮, said he secretly follows me online, called me a ridiculous woman and threatened to get me out on capability (despite four consecutive good appraisals) Over 70 plus staff have left in the past year. Two failed Ofsted. He has cost tax payers a small fortune in NDAs of female staff. He has never offered me a formal apology. I was offered 30 grand to keep quiet by the Trust 🤐 I am happy for him to take me to court if any of my statements are not true. Call out #bullying for what it is. Protect women in #education

What ive read of the inquest report into Ruth Perry's death is shocking but not surprising.The response by Ofsted is disgusting.Calls from educators for reform are louder than ever. Yet,schools/HTs are still publishing their 'grades' like trophies, reinforcing this broken system.

A day? Surely you suspend inspections until further notice?This isn’t a problem you workshop for 6 hours then be on your way.
Breaking: Ofsted will delay inspections next week by a day to give lead inspectors urgent extra training on dealing with anxiety and when to pause their visits
It comes after a coroner ruled inspection contributed to Ruth Perry's death

Flintoff v Flintoff - Technology at its best.
One of the most innovative set up you will see on Twitter.
Flintoff bats against Flintoff of Ashes 2005.
Happy Birthday @flintoff11

I’ve written a blog about why I think celebrating OFSTED grades publicly is the wrong thing to do for the good of everyone in the profession. To try and explain my reasoning fully. If you support OFSTED in its current form, it’ll be irrelevant to you!

‘Trust’ is a word that is filled with positivity and warmth. However, when applied to schools and hospitals it seems to take on a whole new negative meaning.

The number of BBC viewers for this season's The Hundred opener was down 33% from 2022, and 61% down from 2021.
Fundamental questions have to be asked about why the audience appears to be declining year after year.
