What a fab surprise following @samlgibbs1's and my presentation at UnityEd Conference 2023. I already knew that Andy Newell, Haili Hughes and the whole team were brilliant minds. The gift of choccies on my doorstep has me convinced they are pretty much the best people, too.

I'm excited to be speaking at this event. I'll be sharing the evidence underpinning vocabulary and the 'Reading House'. Sign up for free and come join us! 👍

What a brilliant day at #rEDWarr2023 . Great talks by Jim Knight 🇺🇦 Nikki Sullivan and Sarah Bagshaw-McCormick (she/her) have left my head exploding with ideas.

In my happy place! #Literacy #rEDWarr2023

I had no money growing up. My dad was a labourer and my mum did everything to make ends meet. Men worked hard. Women worked miracles. But education was free. As was the local library. I knew books were my passport to a better life. Happy #WorldBookDay
