So I told them.

And now, years later, still nobody has asked me.

So here it is again

Just posted new blog on Bluesky and not (yet) on Twitter. Be interesting to see engagement. Will I fold and put it on Twitter too? Please help me avoid the temptation by reposting here!

Last year I contributed to 25 short pieces aimed at middle leaders for the @tesmagazine.bsky.social

The series covers everything from setting a strategy, to budget, to performance management.

If you’re new to middle leadership, or know someone who is, have a look!

#EduSky, is this a good time to ask #MathsTeachers from all Phases of education, if they have something to share/talk about through a Mathematical Association webinar or podcast? #CPD #Maths in the autumn term? Drop me a message if you do! 🙏

Ok newbies here are a couple of tips to make Bluesky instantly better:
1) follow loads of accounts especially regular posters and things like news outlets so that you get regular new stuff like from the other place of which we don’t speak. Lots of journalists and media accounts have come here.
