And that’s a wrap! After 34 years and a whole lot of fun, it’s time to say goodbye to @OUScotland and all my wonderful colleagues. @OpenUniversity is a very unique and special institution; I am so proud to have been part of its mission for social justice.

I’ll be leaving my beloved OU later this year. This has been the best of jobs and I’d love to pass it on to someone with the passion and enthusiasm to really make a difference to so many learners in Scotland. 👇
