Our own @thewayofkueh.bsky.social, writing in TES today, explains how religious education (RE) prepares young people for a complex world.

We agree! At CAM Academy Trust, breadth of educational experience is one of our core principles.

Our CEO @claireheald.bsky.social shares her views on trust inspections in this @tesmagazine.bsky.social article.

Tes magazine @tesmagazine.bsky.social · Jan 21

🔍 How could multi-academy trusts be inspected? A new self-evaluation system introduced on the Isle of Man may offer inspiration for policymakers in England, finds @ellencph.bsky.social

Could this be the model for MAT inspection?

A new school validation process on the Isle of Man uses self-evaluation. Might it be a basis for the MAT inspections Ofsted has pledged to introduce in England?

Fantastic insights from our CEO @claireheald.bsky.social on the benefits of all-through school systems. She writes that a seamless educational journey fosters consistency, stronger relationships, and better outcomes for students.
@tesmagazine.bsky.social

Claire Heald @claireheald.bsky.social · Dec 3

What if we were able to restructure our system as an all-through model? And what benefits might we be able to realise in our current system with a bit of fresh thinking around this? Thanks to @tesmagazine.bsky.social for enabling me to share some thinking.

Jon Severs @jonsevers.bsky.social · Dec 3

What if... the system was restructured as an 'all-through' model

A challenging, fascinating think piece about the numerous benefits - financial, academic, pastoral and more - @claireheald.bsky.social believes would occur if we set the system up as 'all-through'

Our CEO, @claireheald.bsky.social has been sharing her thoughts on oracy and why it could be risky to treat it as the ‘fourth R’ @schoolsweek.bsky.social

Claire Heald @claireheald.bsky.social · Nov 24

Developing oracy is of course a good thing, but there is a risk around starting to see it as separate from reading and writing

schoolsweek.co.uk/more-oracy-m...

Why it could be risky to treat oracy as a 'fourth R'

It's a superficially appealing idea, but there are real risks of separating oracy out from wider literacy
