Imagine if every school had a professional nutritionist working for their community …

How would it impact on
- the health & wellbeing of every child?
- their learning and outcomes?
- our collective productivity?
- our quality of life and longevity?
- NHS cost & efficiency

It’s Freedom Day in South Africa. We celebrate the anniversary of our first free elections on 25th April 1994 after more than 300 years of oppression, brutality, apartheid and rule by our colonisers.

I hope one day soon the people of Palestine will be celebrating their Freedom Day too

Stephen’s legacy is our eternal need to fight for justice, equity and fairness in a world which continues to be legislated by systemic racism, unfairness and inequity

Aged just 18, he was left to die petrified and alone in a gutter.

Stephen’s family faced a 19 year battle against an incompetent and racial justice system before 2 men were eventually convicted of murder. At least 3 others live free despite being involved in his murder.

If we lived in a kinder and more just world, today #StephenLawrence would be a successful 50 year old architect, living a comfortable life. Sadly on 2nd April 1993 his dreams were destroyed in a horrific racial attack at a bus stop in Eltham.

Last Thursday, I lost a former colleague to sepsis. She was dedicated, hardworking & for 25yrs put her pupils first

And now, she’s gone. She never got time for herself. Never got to enjoy the pension she paid into.

Prioritise taking care of yourself. Life won’t wait

“There’s a girl in the wheelchair just like me”

This is what equity, diversity and inclusion looks like

As we enter a New Year I always remember what Mrs Brown says - that in London everyone is different, and that means anyone can fit in.

I think she must be right - because although I don’t look like anyone else, I really do feel at home

Happy New Year

Love, Paddington

In my yoga class today, as part of our reflection, the yoga teacher said our education system teaches us that everything is about right and wrong and destroys our curiosity. I wish I could disagree and feel so disappointed that that is how we are viewed from the outside

Found this in an interesting post on the other one today. What do you teach your pupils? What would you say to the parent?

What do you get if you enter 1/0 into a calculator

What’s the pattern?
- 8 ÷ 8
- 8 ÷ 4
- 8 ÷ 2
- 8 ÷ 1
- 8 ÷ 0.5
- 8 ÷ 0.25
- 8 ÷ 0.125
