Ta da! Happy Saturday @GrumpyCompSci and @lfc7646 Pretty proud of this merge sort revision and practice guide. The description is a bit clumsy but thought the graphic was well worth the effort... drive.google.com/file/d/1_gdjq-…


I’ve worked in industry and had a lot of appraisals: a meeting with your manager about what you’ve done well over the past year and what they can support you with over the next. So why is a teacher’s appraisal just a list of extra unpaid tasks?


I used to work in an independent school. Teachers had 20% PPA and after-school meetings were rare. It was a game-changer for work-life balance! standard.co.uk/news/politics/…

True

I used to teach. Every year, when we received our new registers of year 7 kids, a few colleagues and I would try to guess who would be the worst behaved in each class based solely on first name. I'd say our success rate was somewhere between 80% and 90%.

Good luck to all the students receiving their GCSE results. Well done to all their teachers, TAs, mentors, and everyone else who supported them 🏅 #GCSEResultsDay


Creating a text-based adventure game on an eInk display? Yep, we can do that! #Python #RaspberryPi #STEM


It’s breaking-up day for many of us, and for me, the end of my first year as HoD. It’s been great, but I could sleep for the next six weeks. Except I have too much work to do! Well done everyone. Alarms off. We made it! 😎

When you’re sat outside the pub, in the sun, shades on, a beer in each hand, and you hear “Hi Sir” 😱
