Volgens mij ben ik de eerste medewerker van het Alfa-college in #Groningen die zich vanuit de organisatie op het #fediverse begeeft!

#introduction

Hi all, unlike my private account I shall be using this to communicate the things our #school does.

About me: I've been a teacher for decades now, and I love my job, although that's not always been the case through #MentalHealth challenges. My job entails (often #neurodiverse) pupils through their national exams in second chance #education

🦋 One of my favourite detail shots. How adorable is this! Inside a traditional-style Japanese elementary school hidden in the mountains. The school has been abandoned since the 1990s.

#Trump made #Minneapolis unsafe for #children

Minneapolis’ #school system will offer families the option of #RemoteLearning for a month amid #federal #immigration “enforcement” in the city, the district said.

The district provided the update in emails to teachers obtained by The AP.

The move comes as the Trump admin sends 2k additional immigration agents to the area & the community responds to the fatal shooting of a local woman by #ICE.

WATCH: More than 80% of U.S. children attend public schools.

Some of the Education Department’s ultraconservative advisers, led by Secretary Linda McMahon, want to change that.

Back-to-school in 2026 could look very different in Europe: France proposes banning social media for under-15s and restricting phones in high schools to curb screen time and protect well-being. 🎒

Key questions remain on enforcement, privacy, and open access to information. Safety and accountability must guide any rollout. 📵

The phone ban has been a major success at the school, and has helped kids focus in class and socialize at lunch. Foot traffic is moving more swiftly in hallways. Without eyes glued to their phones, more students are getting to class on time.

🚸🏫🇮🇹 This long-abandoned school sits in a small Italian village, empty since the 1960s.

Most rooms are empty or ransacked, but the top-floor classroom makes the detour in the blistering Italian summer heat worthwhile! The spectacular painted ceiling details, cute wooden desks, tiny chairs and retro wall map all make for a fascinating time capsule to explore and photograph.
