What a great #haconf25… inspired by @msquinnhistory.bsky.social on Irish history, @mrbajkowski.bsky.social on assessment and barnstorming keynote from Diarmaid MacCulloch… loved presenting and thank you to my little group for all the enthusiasm for criminal women at GCSE!

Seeing a lot of train tweets from folk off to #HAConf25! Sad to miss tomorrow but all for the good reason of orchestrating leavers’ day for a fab bunch of Y13. See you on Saturday for some misbehaving GCSE women…

Today I got to introduce a favourite topic- the Puritans! We all chose a Puritan name for our imaginary 16th century ancestor and then made notes on why they were so stressed about church ales. I had fun. Less sure about Year 10…

Very excited to see the programme for the @histassoc.bsky.social conference in May! Can’t wait to share some of the stories I’ve used that slot into GCSE C&P nicely… what a great line up too!
