Much to sit back and reflect on over a cuppa and bacon cob this morning. Tunes on Spotify providing the soundtrack. Blessed. Have a great weekend, #edusky

New blog post. Influenced by what we've been doing to improve student self-efficacy through Careers in the pastoral framework. Here's an alternative to the curriculum merry-go-round that'll increase teacher workload for no real student gains. #EduSky www.viewsfromthehill.co.uk/blog/tightro...

Bosnia, last century, before some of our current trainees were born. Today, I'll remember mates no longer with us, and our time rebuilidng a school during that tour. Now I'm teaching - mad. With a full 7 period day, I hope it's a gentle one. #ArmistaceDay #Remembrance
