'Bad feedback from pupils knocks you sideways'

To accelerate inspirational teaching, we must refine our practice by factoring in reflective practice to enhance our craft. The power of applying reflection, particularly after stressful incidents, can ensure that any inadvertent habits are curtailed. Avoiding any repeats of negative comments can be challenging but it must be the ongoing teaching target to show the ability to recover from pupils’ criticism and maintain the stability of our mental health.

The Promise of Integrated Schools 

http://www.theatlantic.com/education/archive/2016/02/promise-of-integrated-schools/462681/ 

For those families that prioritize diverse educational experiences, the study shows racially integrated schools improve education for students of all races and accomplish one immeasurable advantage: helping youth challenge stereotypes and their implicit biases toward people of different races and ethnicities. But fully realizing this goal requires teachers who are trained in facilitating courageous conversations about race, said Wells, and skilled in racially and culturally relevant teaching practices
