Had a lovely few days exploring castles and places around Hastings.

First trip of the holiday - the haunted Hellfire Caves.

Bit of exploring in the Yorkshire Dales this morning between Year 11 marking.

Are you aware of the current consultation on 'Gender Questioning Children'?
It was brought out 19.12.23 and my fear is that it closes on 12.3.24 with few people knowing about some massive u-turns!
Please read, share and respond to the consultation. educationhub.blog.gov.uk/2023/12/19/gen…

A HT I’m coaching is looking to visit another school(s). They’re a 2 form junior federated with an infant. Separate HTs. After similar context (30% PPG) decent outcomes at KS2 (80%+) and a great curriculum! Anyone out there? They’re in Kent but looking for other areas. Thanks

UPDATE:

I’ve never made money from any of my resources. I strongly believe in sharing good practice and lessening workload.

However, a good colleague of mine was recently diagnosed with breast cancer and so once live on Tes I’ll post the link with proceeds going to charity 💓

Why is there always money to bomb people, but never any money to feed, house or care for people?

Thank you for all the birthday messages, do you think we can get Ryan Reynolds to wish me happy birthday cos I'm poorly sick in hospital with cancer. And I 💕 him.

One last overnight trip with the kids before term starts. Vampire hunting in Whitby. Staying next to Whitby Abbey is pretty atmospheric. #whitby #yorkshire #dracula

Been on a bit of an epic road trip over Easter. Started at Stonehenge, a place I’d never actually been to before. You can get a lot closer to the stones than I thought you could.
