Many thanks to each participant who shared their experiences, to each reviewer and editor who moved it though the mill and improved it in the process.

#TeachMeet
@turtlestitch
aaaaand delighted to see there is a #teachmeet alongside the program ... more details closer to the time but for now keep #tmTeachMeet10 in mind
@goibhniu thank you - I heard this message very strongly too from @titi at a #TeachMeet in Barcelona last year. Tá sé I m'inteann ón oíche sin ...
Wow. Can’t believe my performance poem and art about #compassion for the Geographical Association Conference #TeachMeet was almost four years ago now! https://youtu.be/PtQINOLmsj8?si=igT9dVAAbvYIMJSg
Really has made me think how lucky I am to still feel part of the #GeographyTeacher community and how humbled I am to be nominated for the Presidency. Please don’t forget to vote if you are a GA member: https://lnkd.in/ebxCrfPn
I am looking forward to all of #CESIcon, but am a wee bit biased towards these parts (I have to be as I'll be taking part!):
GASTA - lightning talks with audience participation - looking forward to being MC. [Think #TeachMeet on rollercoaster]
"Hey AI" Open Forum facilitated by Tony Riley
@turtlestitch hallway demonstration of open source coded physical computing along with @rmillwood @jhegarty and Helen O'Kelly
Most of all, looking forward to meeting CESI folk in person.
See you there.
A message to all those who have been involved in Teachmeets over the years. Did you know next year will be 20years since the first Teachmeet was held, and it'll be 18 years since the first Teachmeet BETT? A very small group of us have started discussing what we can do in 2026 to mark this milestone. A big teachmeet, lots of local teachmeets?
@bromagosa only got here lunchtime today, for #TeachMeet
The inimitable @4pip Pauline Maas in her interactive dress telling us some of the coding and making activities in her classroom #teachmeet #MicroBit

and for @rmillwood a glimpse of the Abbey Bar, not small just faraway 🍺
#BETT via #TFI bus #BA plane #TFL train

If you want to attend the Teachmeet social, it's a little different this year. We're joining up with Texthelp's Bett and Battle event at the Boom Battle Bar in the O2. You can sign up for a free ticket here: https://www.texthelp.com/en-gb/resources/campaigns/bett-battle-party/
@dajb no worries - it's more about finding folk here in the fediverse
#teachmeet hashtag was one of the good things on the birdsite even as it imploded ... many have gone to B'sky and probs found each other ... I'm sure there are more than just us few here.
Have just signed up to do nanopresentation (2 mins) at #tmBETT at the ExCel London in January
It's a quick shout out into the void connect other #TeachMeet folk on here
If you are a TeachMeet person of interest, say hello, and boost the signal
@rmillwood @megjlow @jhegarty @tonyparkin @dajb @dannynic @katemolloy
@johnmayo
@geichel same sentiment here. I did get great bounty from being on the bird site for many years, esp. when for researching #TeachMeet, but that all evaporated.
... if the Bridgy-Fed thing works some folk at Bluesky may see this - see you at the @cesi-ie.bsky.social #TeachMeet tonight?

And it just happened that at a twinning event, Richard Millwood, Research Fellow at Trinity College Dublin got in conversation with Bavarian teacher-trainer Waltraud Ziegler, who mentoined she was bring a group of German teachers (of English as a language) to Dublin in October.
