"UCL study of free schools found that despite claims of setting high standards, this was not the case. Primary free schools performed worse than a matched sample of similar schools, while secondary free schools performed no better or worse."

Great quote. Excellent question.

"The common narrative is that kids learn faster than adults, but if you watch any toddler they spend a large portion of the day attempting things that are on the edge of their ability.

How much time have you spent on the edge of your ability today?"

Devastating for scientists and their research, and everyone who benefits from that research.

I’m not sure if everyone outside academia is aware that a delay or “pause” in grant funding often means the researchers themselves are lost from the field, along with their expertise.
NIH appears to have canceled/postponed all of its study sections—the independent review panels that approve federal grants for health research.

Such grants fund the work/salaries of 300k people at more than 2,500 institutions

If you’re someone who thinks about teacher well-being, mental health in education, or the future of work in schools, I’d love to hear your thoughts.
How do you define wellness—for teachers or for yourself?

A really interesting & challenging piece for those of us who publish our research #educationalresearch #edchatie
Prof. Baris Cayli Messina ( @bariscaylimessina.com ) reflects on the importance of clear writing to bridge academia with the public. He emphasizes the ethical duty of scholars to communicate research effectively, using clarity to inspire change and engage broader audiences.
From Ivory Tower to Public Square: Why Writing Clearly Matters
Writing clearly creates a pathway for academics to step out of the ivory tower and engage meaningfully in the public square where ideas can inspire change and

We had the absolute pleasure of hosting Prof Vini Lander at the University of Manchester. Vini's presentation focused on why we need the Anti-Racism Framework for
Initial Teacher Education & Training. More here: www.leedsbeckett.ac.uk/blogs/carneg...

Not just for philosophy but for any event. It’s a fantastic idea.

I think BlueSky will be significantly better for conferences than any other site. Organisers can create speaker starter packs to allow attendees to auto-follow all speakers. Also a custom feed of all folks skeeting abut a conf would be a big win.
Advocating that tech conferences start including Bluesky accounts on profile pages and badges is already working!

6th post on Graham Nuthall’s Hidden Lives of Learners. #edpsychs #edusky
Getting close to the second big point of the book: the teacher is not the only source of learning in the classroom. We overlook the peer context and the learners’ attitudes, approaches & knowledge at our peril.

ICYMI;

We know that making a difference to the lives of children needs to start early ⏰

We also know early language development is key.

What we need to do about that as practitioners, early years settings & nations is now all in one paper

What we teach early in a student's career can prepare them for more efficient & effective learning later in their career. Curriculum choices matter, and elementary school teachers should be trained to teach across subjects. Spiral Curriculum!

If you can read this, thank a teacher. And also a researcher. Education improves through research and excellent research requires funding.
