It's teddy bear time!

It's a dystopian art deco. The artwork that came with the game is framed and on the wall, as well as characters from the game. Mustard walls though so it's quite statement.

Been off sick a couple of days which is always tricky.

Came back to find this on one of my side boards. Got to love my students

I voted in the NEU election, have you?
September 6, 2025 at 10:02 AM
All done

Cute!
Feel like we should have a thread for the BEST student made cards. I got this one in 2011. And it's still my fav.

Been working through edits on this fat book this week. Can tell you're into it when you're saying "oh I like this question".

Turns out Jack and I have different tastes in what we like though 🤷‍♀️

With 34 days left until the exam, I'm really pleased to see my students using both the exam papers AND the problem solving questions in the TLMaths textbook.

Already quite proud of how my second years transformed over this year.

Yesterday I spoke on bargaining for power and unity in post-16.

We must lift ALL colleges out of poverty and invest in education for our 16-19 year olds.

They spelt my name right at conference.

Feel free to still vote for Dani Horsford in the elections though!

Amazing opening speech by our president Sarah. Talking from the heart, about how we can't stand for more austerity.

In the NEU and the post-16 sector? Are you coming for the post-16 hustings tonight to hear from both candidates for the national executive seat?

If you can't make it, then please watch my video!

Good to be at Hamilton house today (NEU headquarters) to discuss all things post-16.

Weird seeing myself on the table in reception 😆

Curious as to what the NEU does for you at your post-16 college? If I am elected to represent you as your national executive then then one of my aims is to improve communication and support.

Vote Dani Hosford in the upcoming NEU elections!

I'm standing in the NEU elections for the post-16 executive seat. This means if you are a member of the NEU and teach in a post-16 establishment, then you'll have ballot papers from early April.

Use your vote.
Make it count.
Have your voice heard.

Vote Dani Hosford

This day 2 years ago, we were marching for fair pay and funding for teaching.

Once again, we must come together to end the recuitment & retainment crisis.

I come to work and see this on my desk.

We live in dark times, and we must stand up to the rise of the far right, with our allies in Ukraine.

Standing with the @neunion.bsky.social at BSix.
All teachers deserve fair pay and good working conditions.
We say #PayUp.
February 7, 2025 at 10:04 AM
On my way to support union colleagues on strike today at BSix today who are fighting to keep fair pay and conditions.

Teachers should all be paid the same, no matter the sector. The fact that FE colleges are left behind is simply not good enough.

#PayUp

Proud to be NEU today marching in unity against hate @neunion.bsky.social
February 1, 2025 at 4:36 PM
I gave a little speech. If I'd have known, I'd have said happy birthday at the same time!
January 29, 2025 at 3:44 PM
Looking forward to seeing everyone in London!

6th form college action today!
January 29, 2025 at 9:05 AM
In amongst the strike action, the NEU is holding national elections. I have announced my intention to stand as Post-16 national executive member.
I will be a voice for members in all colleges.
Please attend your district meetings and ask them to back my nomination.
January 21, 2025 at 5:59 PM
I never thought I'd be speaking outside the Labour prime ministers office about funding and pay... and the potential break up of our joint negotiations.

Another day, another picket

Would rather be teaching.

Not in this picture myself because I'm the union rep and I take the picture 😅
