📖 I’m back in @TeachSecondary with a double page spread on measures that leaders and teachers can take to curb and manage use of abusive and offensive language within a school’s shared spaces - if you have a copy, let me know what you think!

🚝 I’m looking forward to joining a fantastic line up of speakers tomorrow at #IncludEd25 - join us in session 1 to discuss the important topic of reintegration from AP and what it takes to make reintegration successful

Heading to IncludEd in January and interested in reintegration?

Make sure you book a spot at this panel discussion!

Today some of our Launchpad tuition students arrived in my office with chicken flickin' which I'm rubbish at! - then students from our KS4 PRU made some delicious Pizza and delivered it to my office 🤩
Some great things happening across all of our provisions!

Good luck to all the year 11s receiving level 2 results today!

Congrats if you do well, if you don't get the grades you are expecting - Remember that your school, friends and family are all there to support and advise you as you decide your next steps.
