Bags and Chris come out of their respective closets for Pride week and we discuss how setting up patterns in the classroom accelerates boys’ learning. chris.edutronic.net/patterns-and-c…


Is it reasonable that I'm feeling saying "Literacy is an English Teacher's Responsibility" is somehow a controversial statement? chris.edutronic.net/the-conference/


Gena and I look at the precursors for the great teching of boys chris.edutronic.net/love/


My cherished friend Bagley and I are both HoDs of English at boys' schools. What better reason to launch a podcast! podcasts.apple.com/nz/podcast/its…

Still waiting to be added to the Poets Laureate group chat...


Having a great time with the @NZATE01 communication crew planning for the next year - lots of ideas for our #IsThisForCredits podcast @PhilippaWintle #engchatnz


Sam Uffindell was lucky to avoid NZ’s criminal justice system as a schoolboy – but it was the right outcome. @rnz_news this article makes some outrageous claims that are well beyond the scope of the author’s expertise. Did you read it before republishing? rnz.co.nz/news/on-the-in…


The National Party's downplaying of the unprovoked violent assault perpetrated by their MP Sam Uffindell as a 16 year old sickens me. It's exactly that narrative that explains why bullying and violence is so endemic in our education system.


Very much looking forward to seeing everyone from the IBSC @BoysSchools global family at Westlake Boys’ in Aotearoa New Zealand next year. I definitely recommend taking the extra time to visit us in the South Island #IBSCAC

Being in a presentation with teacher-librarians does indeed make me feel as if I’m with my “Tribe”. @givemeabooknow presents with passion and nuance about Tribalism in Australian literature for our edification at the IBSC conference in Dallas. #IBSCAC @BoysSchools

Claudia and I face some difficult questions about the direction in which our teaching of Secondary English has drifted in recent years. Her doctoral research brought to our attention that the study of complex literary texts is diminishing in New Zealand. podcasts.apple.com/nz/podcast/is-…


The beautiful world of teaching throws up another extraordinary moment. This time I’m in a Texan classroom working with boys’ educators from around the world #IBSCAC @BoysSchools
