He just looked like he didn't understand the question. I don't think it's quite as bad as it's being made out tbh, he got flustered under pressure. He should have done better, but I'm pretty sure he knows they're different countries.

Any tips? I'm at the point of giving up on composting.

DMs and threads for me. The others feel like they'd start a clickbait spiral which Bluesky is successfully avoiding at the moment.

My biggest takeaway from today's reshuffle is that Rishi Sunak has no idea what he actually stands for.

I've got that pinned but it seems very US-centric. There wasn't much discussion from the UK. I'll check back more often though. There's a #uked feed too but it's pretty quiet.

I need more teachers to follow on here. Regular teachers posting about regular teaching. Any recommendations of accounts that I could follow?

Amusingly someone suggested that next year they should have two dad's to make up for it. She didn't like that idea either ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™‚๏ธ

Why are 'sure' and 'pure' such prominent tricky work spellings in year 1?

They've got time for at least 3 more PMs before an election.

I'm fascinated by the Astrea academy strike. Not to pick a side but to see how it gets resolved.

How do you win around students and parents when a significant proportion of teaching staff don't trust or respect the school systems?

It's much better if you add commas around 'who had pet rabbit' like it was written by an overzealous year 5 proving they could use relative clauses.

Someone's had a bet about how many assembly instructions they could fit on a single page ... ๐Ÿคฏ

Thing I like about Bluesky so far:
1) It's close enough to Twitter to feel familiar yet different enough that there's lots to discover and work out.
2) The app logo design is ace. Makes a big difference to the bold and blocky designs that are trendy.
