If he stays in work it's because there's no desire to pay him off. Understandably. But the board- such as it is- must see what the consequences will be.
Come on #wafc board, you know what you have to do.

#wafc Only caught last 30 mins but my goodness what a show. Lacked spirit, energy, creativity, anything really. Surely it's the end. If he turns up on Saturday it'll be horrible.

#wafc Who does the publicity ? If it wasn't for the Progress with Unity podcast I'd know very little about what's happening ? Is there an oasis of Latics stories that I'm missing out on ?

Great interview with John Lloyd. "I never wanted power over other people, I just didn't want them to have power over me." Perfect 👏 @mrjamesob.bsky.social

My book " In Search of my Alumni'" has just become out of print. Told same story 6 years ago. Could have saved loads of expert time 😀
if the curriculm review does nothing else, binning the fronted adverbials nonsense in Year 6 (if you know you know) means it was worth it frankly www.theguardian.com/education/20...
England curriculum should focus less on exams and more on life skills, finds review
Experts say pupils should spend less time in exam halls and more time on activities like life skills, sport and work experience

Fifty-nine years ago today 116 children went to class never to return to their families after a coal spoil tip collapsed and engulfed the school. The tragedy also claimed the lives of 28 adults.
One of the darkest days in Wales’ history. Never forgotten.
