I chose Inclusion as the topic. As assistant head teacher of a special school I see a range of inclusion issues, those young people for whom inclusion in a mainstream setting has not worked out. Those students who we have to adapt and employ a huge range of strategies to ensure they are included within our community. For many students our school is a last resort only available to them once current placements break down. Many have been out of school for extended periods whilst a suitable placement is found. What I don’t have huge insight into is how the ethos of inclusion is viewed and applied in mainstream settings. Often this is with fantastic results and I was interested how SLT support their teachers to achieve this.
And the Scenarios, quite close here but scenario 2 was the winner. Great stuff.
As You can see a made a few different prompt tweet images to avoid the @sltchat timeline being too repetitive. Urging voting and reminding people of the time and date. Although Im sure most avid SLT-chatters do not need reminders. See what I mean about the hilarious puns. I scheduled all of these on tweetdeck. especially the questions for the chat itself. The tweetdeck moved so fast i’m sure I missed some tweets but tried to respond and RT as many as I could.
The Pressure was on as the last two #SLTchat chats had trended. As soon as 8.30 arrived I was able to blink and on my ipad it certainly seemed to be trending! I received a tweet from @Kellyscc saying #SLTchat was trending in Australia. Very exciting. I really enjoyed hosting #SLTchat and the Link to the Nurph replay is here 416 tweets in 30 minutes.
Thanks to Andy Calvert and Stephen Logan for their support.
