"Too often, KS3 is treated as a rehearsal for GCSEs rather than a stage with its own intellectual purpose."

Morning,

A request for help:

I recently moved up north (near Bolton) and I’ve been on supply ever since.

I need a permanent job. Science teacher. 20yrs exp.

Schools don’t always advertise on the TES so if anyone knows anyone, please pass this on?

I’d really appreciate it!

While the Curriculum and Assessment Review contains recommendations for the DfE, there are some themes that are worth considering now.

As with Ofsted’s new EIF there’s a big focus on inclusion.
