Today, Bolder Academy needs to say a huge thank you to @alfdubs.bsky.social
Year 10 & 11 (& staff) were totally wowed!
Loads of students stayed behind to shake Alf’s hand and thank him for his service, or ask (brilliant) questions.
I felt immensely proud of our brilliant ‘bold’ kids

We’re hiring for the ‘worldly’ Geography team at Bolder Academy!

Thank you to everyone who came to our second Ark Soane History conference yesterday. It was such a joy to see so many history teacher colleagues together.

As always, I’m proudest of our pupils who were so keen to help and talk about history. What a lovely day. #Soane25

The fantastic #Viking Age finds at the Grosvenor Museum #Chester include two gold finger rings, displayed here with commentary by @archaeodeathprof.bsky.social #medievalsky howardwilliamsblog.wordpress.com/2020/02/13/t...

Confession - I love old history textbooks & have way too many… my wife (justifiably) gets frustrated by how much room they all take up…

Gloucestershire - God’s own county.
It’s in verse. It must be true.

If you haven’t already, get yourself to the ‘Medieval Women in their Own Words’ exhibition at the @britishlibrary.bsky.social. I spent a lot of my visit ‘fanboying’ Melisende…

I very much enjoyed this… and not just because it’s about farting.

Sure lots have already visited ‘Medieval women in their own words’ on currently @britishlibrary.bsky.social?
It’s fantastic!

Have you ever seen a box FULL of #Viking oval brooches?!

In 2018, I had the immense privilege of being part of a viewing at the National Museum of Scotland as part of our #Vikings in Scotland: 20 Years On conference, which served as the precursor to our EUP book, The Viking Age in Scotland.

@alfdubs.bsky.social I’m a history teacher at a state school in West London.
When we teach our year 10s about Britain’s migration story in the spring term, we teach them about you as one of our case studies!
I wonder whether you might be interested in talking to our students in person or virtually?

🤦‍♂️ Oh dear.

Have had a long social media hiatus…
Breaking cover - what have history been doing at Bolder?
We’ve been massively enjoying (& so have year 7) using the new @counsellc.bsky.social et. al. textbook.
Great stories, lovely illustrations, beautifully simplistic focus prog. in concepts. Cracking!
