Perhaps we should say ‘Pupil EQUITY Fund’ instead of the acronym PEF to help us to focus on the core purpose of this funding? I love these images which help us understand ‘equality’ & ‘equity’. PS: we can’t address inequity on our own (education) #collaboration #equity

As schools plan improvements to close their poverty-related gaps (e.g. interventions using Pupil Equity Funding) they might find something like this useful. Sometimes we jump straight to 'address your gaps'! Intersecting different types of data helps identify 'root causes.' #Data

Planning an improvement project? Schools might find something like this useful to refer to! Working with various staff in a couple of schools in Dundee today who found working through these steps helpful. #DataInformed #ScottishAttainmentChallenge #PEF

Accepted my place (conditional offer) on the #StrathEdD today, commencing in October! What have I let myself in for!? It’s only taken me about 5 years to apply so I’ll go with ‘excitement’ for now! 😃 It’s not like I’m starting a new job at the same time 😂

Evaluating 'participation'? This @EducationScot document provides a framework (The ‘Four Arenas of Participation’)to help us understand and develop when, where, and how children can have a say in their settings. Includes an evidence-based rationale.

Last day of term for colleagues in Dundee - enjoy the well deserved break. Wishing everyone near and far a very Merry Christmas. Enjoy spending time with family and friends - after all that's what it's all about. (signing off for 2018)

Relaxing couple of days leave - first since started new job in August. Lovely flying visit back to @Kinneil_PS for lots of hugs & chat. Seem to be locked out of work email just now so I'll take that as a sign! Sunny Dundee tomorrow 😊

Spent a lovely morning in @CraigiebarnsPS , where my school tour was led by 4 amazing Primary 7s. I definitely saw the school's values in action throughout. Thank you! 💚 Wonderful to see all the primary 1s in both classes so settled and happy! 😊 #DundeeLearning

Decided to play around with the new Surface Pro & 'play' came to mind! I hope to get better but I will definitely have fun playing & trying to do so! #PlayIsTheWay
