Haha innit, tbf I do like the 2010 - 2014 era of eastenders, reminds of simple times at home with my family

Eastenders at 8000 episodes be like (not a good show)

I was hoping for DnD, guess that'll do tho 😳

See you there in a few weeks! Let me know what I've got to look forward to!

I'm on Chess currently... Any tips from anyone here?

100%, if the schools were funded well enough, issuing school phones would be amazing!

School computers work well because they block most of the distractions but ofc students have 1001 distractions in their own!

For sure! A lot of parents don't really understand the amount of stuff teachers have to go through either, and we don't get paid for the hundreds of hours we do outside of teaching hours.

It's why I had to quit in the end. Felt like I couldn't give it my all because I was mentally and physically exhausted.

I'm all for giving them a chance to prove they're able to be responsible. Especially the kids that always try hard and deserve to be trusted.

I found that a lot of kids struggled to accept any consequences of their actions, though taking their phones off them for playing games was pretty clear to them.

The amount of times I told my students they can use their phone for certain exercises, then 90% of them just went on Tiktok or played Clash Of Clans, is why is started not allowing phones.

I get that to the 10% it was super helpful but it's just easier to not allow everyone.

Yeah, driving through Bristol is hell at the best of times

What's even funnier is I was looking through my dad's record collection and he has a single from my drummers dad's band! Small world

Funnily enough, I recently found out the drummer in my band's Dad had a song in Vice City!
