Some really important points here. Social media can be an incredibly powerful tool for schools to build a sense of community and connection but as @nuthmani.bsky.social says clear boundaries need to be in place
With the mass migration away from X of many educators, I share some thoughts about what schools need to weigh up while making the decision to stay or move on...

Some interesting and promising thinking here around technical frameworks, types of knowledge and a commitment to continuous review which are so needed for teachers in planning and assessing through the Scottish curriculum.
Work has now begun on the Curriculum Improvement Cycle.
As part of our commitment to keeping you updated on the progress being made last week we published a discussion paper with findings from the pilot curriculum reviews work in 23/24.

Thanks for all the follows. So great to connect with so many folks on a much better platform. Mostly post about education, leadership and policy. For today though it’s just a photo of the first frost of the Autumn here in East Lothian. #edusky
