So delighted to share I’ve been awarded a CBE in the King’s New Year’s Honours List!
Very much a shared honour- so many folk nurture #readingforpleasure - making a difference to today’s young people. @barbarableiman.bsky.social @karlduke8.bsky.social @whatsfsaid.bsky.social @misterbodd.bsky.social
Just got to this - thanks - it is a tragedy I agree - personal relational education pushed to the limits.

Not sure what to say Gordon- but thank you ☺️

I too will read everything you write. From our first encounters in Macclesfield your insightful capacity to cut through to the core of all things educational shone through. Write - share - I’m listening and so are others ( and swearing this is happening) . Go for it Megan. Xx

Reading and Writing for Pleasure: An Evidence-Informed Framework for Practice
