What a superb day I’ve had visiting Barrowford Primary today. I’ve felt welcomed, included and privileged to hear about (and see!) the fantastic work on behaviour approaches, curriculum innovations, culture, and so much more. Thank you so much @rachtomlinson.bsky.social and the Barrowford team!

This week (and the end of last) have really given me some great opportunities for reflection, dissection, analysis and review. The power of coaching, networking and connection really can’t be underestimated in the way it can support you!

Having absorbed all the bad it could from the year, the 2024 #LemonPig has passed its penny on to the 2025 #LemonPig. It's got some work todo.

So my ‘thing’ on the bird app is to post a daily inspirational quote. This either reflects my current mood or pushes me to what I want that to be for the day. How do we feel about that? Are you ‘re-inventing’ or doing the same as you did over here? All thoughts welcome!

Does anyone know if you can add additional accounts to Blue Sky? I’m thinking one for my school and one as me? @support.bsky.team
