Great to return to the lovely Willow Tree Primary to work with each year group team. I supported them with delivering their NCCE #CreativeMedia units with #Chromebook friendly resources.

HELP! A while ago now I learnt how to create my own paper-based Scratch blocks that looked like this (think it was on an @wearecomputing.bsky.social course!) and I had a lot of fun with them! I want to create some more, but can't work out how I did it... any suggestions #TeamCompSci?

Teachers are drowning in marking, but is it really helping students? Research shows excessive marking may hurt teacher wellbeing without improving progress.

Tonight I’m reminded of this old idea I often shared on Twitter.

An app like this isn’t going to change your life, but the educators you meet here will.

Grateful to have a space like this open again.

Totally brilliant 👏
Last week on #Wonderblocks we met important characters including Go & Stop & we learned how Do blocks make things happen. This week we're learning more about pattern & sequence. Five more episodes arrived on iPlayer today. www.bbc.co.uk/cbeebies/sho... @computingatschool.bsky.social

Follow Wonderblocks Go and Stop, and a whole host of lovable characters, as they learn to think for themselves and work together to solve any problem that comes their way.

Being in the US this week has meant time to catch up on reading and this Schools Week article by Jack Dyson. As an indirect beneficiary of NCCE Computing hubs, this decision is deeply disappointing but a reminder too to redouble my own efforts to continue what I do where I can.
