- Reposted by Mark GoodrichAs grown-ups we can often fall into the trap of leaning towards serious or ‘issue heavy’ kid’s books, forgetting that kids also need and deserve books that just bring joy. So for #KidsBooksFriday this week, what are your top fun / silly / joyful book recommendations? #KidLitUK #UKKidLit #KidLit

- Add this from @karenvaites.bsky.social to the pile of “don’t use LLMs to accurately answer difficult questions” research. Interesting topic although not something which has affected us in the same way in the UK. open.substack.com/pub/karenvai...
- It’s one of those nights in Asia when I go to bed thinking that the whole political picture may look dramatically different in the morning.
- I was really enjoying this fun primary-focused A-Z leadership blog by the @theeducakers.bsky.social until I got to X…. I think you can guess why my mood changed. 🤦♂️ open.substack.com/pub/theeduca...
- Annoying #EduSky pedant. It’s not actually a strict hierarchy…

- It’s only tangentially to do with schools but it’s another funny and insightful @daisychristo.bsky.social piece on mobile phones and shifting social norms. Someone should really give her a newspaper column…. open.substack.com/pub/daisychr...
- A long but really long thought-provoking read by @didau.bsky.social on mimicry, performance as a proxy for learning and transfer of knowledge to new contexts. Well worth sitting down with a hot beverage to read! open.substack.com/pub/daviddid...

- Just got around to looking at this and it’s the inconsistency between subjects that is so striking. Just 2 for English?!? The other weakness is that primary seems hardly represented at all.
