To @caroljallen @PaulWat5 @mr_k3ys @Animate2Educate @EdRoundtables @PaulCraig24 @SimonPobble @mrbeeteach @TeamTait @brynll @smithsmm @karen_wallee for the most brilliant and inclusive, human 'in the field' #BrewEdToon 💜

.@caroljallen reminding everyone in the room a really great teacher doesn't need resources - they are the resource; of creativity, of belief, of humanness. 🙏💜 #BrewEdToon

ASK. @caroljallen reminds us to keep asking - what do you need, how can I help, how can I change this? Fierce curiosity 🔥#BrewEdToon

Carol intro tech and within a week she was writing poetry. This is her book Carol supported publishing. Every child matters. #believe #BrewEdToon 💜💜

.@caroljallen: we all use our senses in everyday life and we need to understand them more - so we can connect and understand our student's differing experiences, and therefore walk with them, in education #BrewEdToon

.@caroljallen discussing how adults can sit, in comfort - probably without thinking, in a way that meets proprioceptive needs (@VocabularyNinja) yet we expect children to sit on a dot on the floor...🔥#BrewEdToon

Next the most brilliant @caroljallen. Reminding us about why we need to remember the children often in the middle, those not heard or seen or valued...every child can be supported and taught #BrewEdToon

.@mr_k3ys you are brilliant, thank you so much for organising #BrewEdToon absolutely superb, inclusive and powerful day. Grateful 🙏💜

.@TeamTait emphasising the importance of not leaning into assumptions. What kids do or don't know, how or why, and remaining curious about that, so they can be supported well, in education and life 🔥 #BrewEdToon

.@TeamTait sharing his experience, as FSM child, travelling to America. 'How do you want your burger?' the waiter asks...'in a bun with chips?'....Jon discusses cultural capital, kids misconceptions and how we support that, in classrooms...#BrewEdToon

Next up, it's @TeamTait talking about why we need to make sure disadvantage is really understood, that it's not just a label. Every single person will need different support, because they have very different needs. It's not rocket science...
#BrewEdToon

Huge numbers not in school/don't have a place - so many reasons....@smithsmm brings the final discussion point. Shares a CYP thriving in school with #eyegaze - 'we're just a primary, not a special school - but they said they can't meet need' This. All kids matter. #BrewEdToon

.@smithsmm 'We are driving children away from creative arts, music etc and it becomes about the academic focus only. Does that work for our children?' #BrewEdToon

.@smithsmm 'we need to respect that we are doing different things' #BrewEdToon

. @smithsmm sharing staff operating in one way (when being watched by inspectors, for example) and differently when not observed - the kids are no different. Is it 'behaviour' or is it 'compliance'? Discussion begins....#BrewEdToon

Next up @smithsmm...who hasn't shared his wisdom publicly since 2020 - glad he's here today, absolutely #genius. If there's any reason to move to #Whitby it would be because his school rocks. #BrewEdToon

. @EdRoundtables - how do connections work to a positive? Example - Kids (Yr6) enc to read with younger years, each Thurs. Thurs 'behaviour' rapidly moved to a positive. Because they connected. 🔥 #BrewEdToon

.@EdRoundtables advice from his Head years ago: 'try talking to the kids...find out one thing about them and share one thing about you'...went from 'them and us' to 'our teacher, our kids' and a move from 'doing school to them' to 'a place where they belong' #BrewEdToon

.@EdRoundtables discussing how do we create a sense of #belonging for all children? How do we welcome people in? And sustain the authentic feeling of belonging in school? Reminded me of #NATPmentalhealth 'Come and be well in my presence' @JoPavlopoulou #BrewEdToon 💜

. @EdRoundtables discussing the competition created between Educators (by the system, Ofsted, League tables etc) is it a good thing? How do we create a sense of belonging if this overwhelms or overtakes? Does it improve things? #belonging #BrewEdToon

Love this from @EdRoundtables. @_LisaCherry thought of you 💜 #BrewEdToon

Next up @EdRoundtables talking about why authentic #belonging is so important 🔥🙏 #BrewEdToon

@tagtiv8 superb. Why movement is key not just for learning, but health and #inclusion too 🙏 #BrewEdToon

@tagtiv8 bringing 'embodying cognition' to life, with @MrBeePrimary and @Animate2Educate brilliant! #BrewEdToon

@tagtiv8 brilliantly explaining why #movement is key in learning, and supports a huge number of kids who learn in differing ways 🔥 #BrewEdToon

#BrewEdToon with the amazing @caroljallen and my Ma - the original out of the box teacher 🔥💜

Next @MrBeePrimary discussing variation theory, concept...and maths 💥 #BrewEdToon

.@karen_wallee sharing how to get kids involved - #graffiti on display boards, or writing on the windows...author connections through positive social media and loads more ideas 💡⭐ #BrewEdToon

@karen_wallee discussing how to really create interest in reading - badges on lanyard, carrying what you're reading to each lesson, book trolleys ...evoking curiosity and conversation with children by sharing things differently. #BrewEdToon

@karen_wallee next discussing how to develop a reading culture in school. 'Read to children as much as you - to develop their love of books' is the key message. #BrewEdToon
