Doing some CPD today with @HuntingEnglish. It's so important for our children to read more! The internet, PS4s and Netflix are both blessings and burdens. A child's ability to read WELL and their chances of being financially independent in adulthood are inextricably linked!

Look at these incredible works of art from @prospectschool's Katie, Year 8. The 1st image is a propaganda poster based on George Orwell's 'Animal Farm'. The 2nd symbolises the different sides of Abigail in 'The Crucible'. Need her to start producing revision guides for Year 11s!
