What a fantastic woman Jill clearly was - her experience of difference and being medicalised and what she achieved all wrapped into whay will be an amazing book is am sure.

What a huge honour it was as editor of @tesmagazine.bsky.social to host the annual Tes Summer Drinks reception in Westminster last night. Very grateful to @bphillipsonmp.bsky.social for speaking and then staying for the duration to speak with school leaders. Huge thanks to everyone who came!

Great to hear @pepediiasio.bsky.social this morning - calling out the big issues of the sector, including the 'deeper' and 'angrier' divisions between schools and a small but growing group of parents - largely driven by wider social pressures.

I can confirm Beck's Odelay is still absolutely awesome. Must be 20 years since I last listened to it all the way through.
