UN "Around 100 CHILDREN have either been killed or injured EVERY DAY since the ceasefire collapsed in Gaza." Nothing to see here - just over 15000 dead children. A stain on humanity.

Energy bills up 6.4% — while network providers raked in £4 billion in “excess” profits over four years. Water bills up 26% — while firms paid £78 billion in dividends since privatisation & racked up £64 billion in debt. End this scam. Bring water & energy into public ownership.

Dawn is genuinely one of my favourite humans. She’s been so kind and thoughtful to me, and she’s constantly in my thoughts. I really hope we can support her in some way during this difficult time. www.justgiving.com/crowdfunding...

Curriculum & Assessment Review interim report on primary assessment: *Generally tests work well for their purposes *GPS tests are probably not doing the right job *KS2 writing assessment is probably leading schools to focus on the wrong things and needs review. I agree. www.gov.uk/government/p...

#TeamRE My old (and incredibly lovely) school needs some urgent RE cover from 17th March for a few weeks. Ideally to include GCSE and A-level, but there is flexibility. School is in Stratford-upon-Avon. DM me if interested. Honestly a joy to teach there.
