I have been fortunate in my career to have had three amazing women lead, mentor and inspire me: @profsallybrown.bsky.social Prof Ruth Pickford and Prof Danielle George. I am forever grateful for their continual guidance. it’s fantastic to see @altuk.bsky.social recognising women in our community.

great to see a gov taking a leading role in this way. It helps join up the thinking & gives practical guidance through emerging practice.

I wonder what the morning will bring? I love the snow, especially when I was a child & school was closed. But the idea of a snow day being a day off school is pretty much gone 😟. Many schools now set online learning activities for children to complete. But don’t forget to set some time for play too!

For those just joining Bluesky and interested in Higher Education, I have created a list of educators I follow which may be helpful to look at to expand your own network.

A brilliant article by @dkernohan.bsky.social in @wonkhe.bsky.social

OfS think that students with low a’level grades but high degree classifications are “unexplained”. Maybe if they actually knew what Universities do and how they support students to maximise their potential then it wouldn’t be such a mystery to them. www.officeforstudents.org.uk/news-blog-an...

Now I’ve nothing against cats and as we all know it’s exactly what the internet was made for but @bsky.app seems to have a higher proportion of cat posts than most 🤔 - can someone check the algorithm please 😉

I’m grateful for the tools to protect my Wordpress site but why the heck would there have been 11k attempts to hack it. Must be something valuable on there that I don’t know about 😂

@bsky.app definitely feels like an early Twitter. I’m excited for it’s potential and it’s been lovely connecting with people again at @altuk.bsky.social conference #altc24 where I’d really missed the friendly back channel of conversation when I ditched using the one with the bird!!
