I'm doing a #FreeGiveaway of my latest book "The Ultimate Guide to Adaptive Teaching" to celebrate its publication! Repost this message to enter. Winner announced on 10th April. UK only. #EduSky #inclusion
I've shared some resources on @computingatschool.bsky.social to help with this here 👉 www.computingatschool.org.uk/resources/2025/april/microbit-battle-bots
We used Cutebots from @elecfreaks.bsky.social
Great to return to the lovely Willow Tree Primary to work with each year group team. I supported them with delivering their NCCE #CreativeMedia units with #Chromebook friendly resources.
If this is something your staff could benefit from, email: education.team@eduthing.co.uk
Thank you 🙏 I’ll check this out later 🤗
Hi Gillian. I don’t think it was because I’m sure I didn’t need to subscribe to anything 🥴
👋Hello #EduSky, #TeamCompSci and everyone! We're new here so here's a little intro!

HELP! A while ago now I learnt how to create my own paper-based Scratch blocks that looked like this (think it was on an @wearecomputing.bsky.social course!) and I had a lot of fun with them! I want to create some more, but can't work out how I did it... any suggestions #TeamCompSci?
In 2016, a working group commissioned by the Department for Education (DfE, 2016) discovered that the excessive intensity, extent and regularity of marking was adversely impacting teachers’ wellbeing and hindering their capacity to strategise, organise and execute exceptional lessons. Marking had taken over our non-classroom working time, posing a threat to our health and, paradoxically, not having a ‘positive impact on pupils’ progress’ (DfE, 2016 p. 6). To some extent, one could argue that there were instances when we lost focus on the intended purpose of marking. Instead of serving as a tool to advance and enhance students’ learning, it had transformed into a superficial practice merely showcasing teacher engagement with the work.
Teachers are drowning in marking, but is it really helping students? Research shows excessive marking may hurt teacher wellbeing without improving progress.

I’ve been saying exactly the same thing re. not making the same mistake twice! 😔 #TeamCompSci
Hi Kelly, I don’t run a robotics club, but I do run a Code Club and I’d strongly recommend checking out @codeclub.bsky.social …lots of great advice and (editable) resources for running a club. #teamcompsci
😆 would it still have been able to do a handstand though?!
Thanks, James! And thank you for your input too… great to have 4 new AR apps to checkout 🤗
⭐Department for Education continues to fund the National Centre for Computing Education. ⭐
Teachers will still be able to access high quality CPD and teaching resources to support and enrich computing lessons.

@b3ndavi3s.bsky.social …found your handle!
What a brilliant time @wearebcs.bsky.social this afternoon celebrating 10 years of Barefoot. Great to catch-up with some familiar folks @juliaadamson.bsky.social @neilrickus.bsky.social @craftycomputing.bsky.social and meet some in person for first time, Ben 🤗 #teamcompsci
An app is not going to change your life, but the educators you meet there will.
Tonight I’m reminded of this old idea I often shared on Twitter.
An app like this isn’t going to change your life, but the educators you meet here will.
Grateful to have a space like this open again.

www.computingatschool.org.uk/events/2025/... and join a host of passionate educators who will share what's working for them... #teamcompsci
Totally brilliant 👏
My kind of planning! Looking at how we can use Wonder Blocks to teach computing.

A montage of photographs showing different artwork I've made from recycled materials, this includes masks, animals, buildings, and other models made entirely from scrap cardboard, egg cartons, and paper plates.
Being fairly new to this platform I'm aware that many people will not be familiar with my work. So, hello!
I'm Darrell, I work with children of all ages (and adults sometimes) making artwork from cardboard and recycled materials. I share lots of free ideas. 😁 www.darrellwakelam.com #edusky #art
