For years, I’ve searched for ways to support schools who can’t access PD because of geography or economics. Two months ago, I launched PD-OD.com, a library of 5-15mins videos covering a wide range of teaching & learning topics. I’ve just added 4 more titles, taking the collection to 52 with lots more in the pipeline. If you know anyone who might find these videos useful, please pass on the news!

A week of work and play in Norway 🇳🇴 What a treat to be back with all these fabulous folk.

What happens when we give students the space to think for themselves? 🧠

That’s the idea behind Philosophy for Children (P4C), a powerful way to build reasoning, reflection, and deeper understanding in the classroom.

Watch the full video to see how P4C can transform classroom discussions and student thinking.

Teachers deserve PD that works the same way we expect learning to work in classrooms: bite-sized, flexible, and differentiated.
