My thought for the day (for what it’s worth): when school leaders make a commitment to total quality, everything changes.

Great to visit Oakdene Primary Academy in Billingham to see their approach to raising the attainment of disadvantaged pupils.
To break down barriers to opportunity, pupil premium funding will rise to over £3 billion in 25-26.

This has potential for change.
I sincerely hope they draw on the vast network of organisations leading some excellent work on this issue
Whilst the issue is significant, so too is the work taking place across the UK to both understand AND tackle it.

I went to see Waterloo. Disappointingly, not a train in sight. But Rod Steiger was brilliant.

Bonjour from Paris! Our Year 6 children are on a residential trip to France’s capital. Today they are visiting the Louvre, sailing on the Sienne and stopping at the Eiffel Tower! #HardwickGreenPA #HardwickMFL #HardwickPersonal

Geography fieldwork - year 3
After looking on Google Earth, we used a map and compass to follow a route to the nearby park. Once there, we made a list of the key features before making a plan of the park, visualising it from above. #geography

This year has been ‘out of this world’ … we’ve had a wonderful time in Year 5 and I’m thrilled to be taking the children into Year 6! Take a look at the art work which we completed with our parents 🪐🚀 #MoorsidePA #MoorsidePAART @MoorsidePA
