@counsellc.bsky.social @paulalobo.bsky.social I’ve been listening to this series of podcasts by BBCRadio3 this week and this is my Sunday morning treat … is Ethel Smyth in the 20th Century book? What a story! I had heard of her as a suffragette but not as a composer. www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/...

@bbcradio3bot.bsky.social doing some fantastic world building here! @michaeldoron.bsky.social I didn’t know the story of Florence Price - but it’s a great one. @mrmountstevens.bsky.social I was inspired to listen to by your Shostakovich story. (Ep2, told by Michael Sheen.) ☺️

#historyteacheruk #Soane25 Looking over the shoulder of the young man writing here is sad for a history teacher I feel, but it makes teacher conferences like yesterdays all the more important!

People, places and a pinch of discipline - @richkhistory.bsky.social rounded off the day perfectly. If we can live by that as history teachers, what wonderful imagined historical worlds our pupils will be helped to build. #Soane25

Already amusing myself with the "guess which of the descriptors is meant to be better" game for the new Ofsted toolkits.
