If more AP provision is out of the question then some sort of nationwide literacy booster/catch up programme. It's the key to everything else

V true. Also evidence based initiatives vs "I saw this on twitter and think it's a really good idea"

Meaning I can focus on how best to deliver course-specific knowledge rather than having to think about how to evidently show I was using visualisers/talk tactics/choral response/highlighter colours for different concepts (seriously!)/ whatever that week's priority was

Definitely agree. As a trainee my school had so many different pedagogy priorities that changed so often I felt like teaching was just a je ne sais quoi I didn't have. Moved to current place where good teaching is measured against "5 basics" which don't change. Simple, specific, and achievable
