Thank you to everyone who joined us in LA!
Will you be at #AERA2026 this week?
I will be presenting my comparison of primary and post-primary teachers' disciplinary literacy practices on Wednesday 8th.

“After the Fall” by @dansantat.bsky.social
Is possibly one of the most used books I have (I’m on my fourth copy. It’s a clever, thought-provoking book about overcoming your fears. The art is sublime , with wonderful gags and characterisation. Genius! A PSHE must have. #PicturebookPage

A DCU study has found significant burnout and poor mental health among Irish teachers, as well as a large proportion of teachers being “unlikely” to remain in the profession long-term.
A wonderful online event, filled with such authenticity and impactful research in the primary school classroom! Well done to all involved 👏🏻
Join us at 6pm today!
