I am currently writing a chapter for a new leadership book commissioned by the PTI. Joining @bsky.app has cemented my conviction that as teachers we become agents of change when we are inspired to learn from one another. My writing is fuelled by a vision of hope. Hurrah!

Just seen a headline in one of the papers, saying Boris Johnson is about to publish his memoirs. A good time to remember this superb letter written during the pandemic.

Give a reason with your answer please.
