A fun morning at school today. MP @jonathandaviesmp.bsky.social popped over with rapper Shao Dow @shaodowmusic.bsky.social who put on a proper show for our year 8’s. Lovely to see our MP supporting our Creative Industries faculty. Had to grab a selfie, of course!

I found the cutest Belper Bee in my pigeon hole this morning! I have the nicest and most thoughtful staff at my school.

An enormous congratulations to Belper School and @matildewarden.bsky.social on a truly superb Ofsted report. I know from family and friends who have children there the impact you have had. Brilliant to see this reflected in print! I hope you’re celebrating 🥂

Our Head of Technology has made wooden name badges for all our Year 6’s who are coming up for induction day in a couple of weeks. They double up as keyrings for their locker keys too. So cute! I was very chuffed to have been given one this morning too!

After being a double RI school for several years, I am very pleased to say that our Ofsted report was published today and we are Good in all areas! What a relief. Happy Friday!

Billions spent on HS2 which won’t be ready for years, but meanwhile trains may be affected by a bit of warm weather this weekend. I don’t know, maybe spend a few quid sorting that out first! www.thetrainline.com/trains/great...

Just catching up on the news. Did I just hear Rachel Reeves say temporary classrooms are unacceptable? Excellent! Time to start dismantling our 45 year old terrapins! Woo hoo!!

This has definitely been the best series of Race Across the World. Loved every minute. Would have been happy to see any of them win! #ratw

I just finished writing the timetable (version who knows?) and I’m not teaching maths next year for the first time in 30 years 😢. Computing for me this time around. I did teach a few lessons briefly back in the early 2000’s, but I imagine it’s changed somewhat since then!
