This week has been particularly busy Tees Valley Education in our #research and #development teams. Busy is fine, especially if it enables us to continue to grow and be curious as an organisation. When I was mainly classroom based as an educator I used to have a habit of phoning three families each week. This would be to call out pupils that had done something which positively stood out; 'catching them getting it right' (rather than calling home with a negative...) So, this week I'm using my #FridayThree to call out three individuals in the sector that enabled me and my teams to grow and develop this week. (1) John Smith Royal Grammar School Newcastle for their constant collaboration and ability to be gracious disruptors alongside us. The #NorthEast education sector is richer for them. Thanks John! (2) Stuart Kime FCCT for enabling me and my team to be more curious! Stuart and the Evidence Based Education team have a real talent for helping teams to continue to grow and think beyond the immediacy of day-to-day fire fighting in education. Thanks Stuart! (and Robert Coe of course!) (3) SHINE Trust for various sessions of late, but especially the #ActionLearning sessions this week and the other colleagues that contributed to it. SHINE enables leaders like me to take a step back from the 'doing' and to consider the 'thinking'. The collaboration with them is brilliant. It's far more than a funding stream for our research projects! #Partnership #PLACE #Practice #CPD #Refreshed #Collaboration #EvidenceBasedEducation #ItsTheClassroomStupid #Curiosity

It is personal!

Beyond Proud of You Mark! To all of my educators if you have any words of wisdom for my younger brother please drop them in the comment section!

" Peter Hughes, CEO of The Mossbourne Federation. Part 2 in our inspirational Mossbourne attendance series explores the importance of laying the foundations for success to achieve high pupil attendance.

I believe wholeheartedly in this work! I have been in this work since 2016 in some facet. It has ebbed and flowed over the years and even looked different post-pandemic. Nevertheless, the tools of engagement that we share with our students will always give them the option to restore. This article quotes the work of NC, but more importantly the work of Southwest Guilford High School! #restorativepractices #toolsofengagement #transformativeleader #principallife #educationalleadership https://lnkd.in/erCyWaXY
