This term, the launch of our new primary #science curriculum includes developing pupils’ understanding of #solar energy. We learn how solar panels work, complete a drone inspection of the school solar panels & interrogate the data to work out how many appliances we have powered.

Changes include having a member of paediatric-trained staff in the room (not just available) during eating, tightening up on allergies and having more than two emergency numbers for each child. #headteacher #eyfs #edutwitter assets.publishing.service.go……

I took so many practical ideas, top tips and inspiration from yesterday’s #EdTech conference. Thank you to @LGfL, as well as the pupils and teachers from each school who taught live lessons in the incredible XR lab. One day very well spent.

Today was a proud day, hearing from over 700 Young Leaders about how their projects have had a positive impact on their communities. Made even more special by the incredible surroundings of Leicester Cathedral. ‘Be the change you want to see’ @Discoverytrust @LeicesterDbe

School improvement is not about perfection — it’s about progress, courage, and the determination to keep moving forward, even when it’s tough. Over the past few years, I’ve learned that meaningful change in schools doesn’t come from chasing perfection or quick wins. It comes from really honest conversations, consistent reflection, and a relentless focus on what matters most — our children. The path isn’t always smooth. There are tough days, hard truths, and moments when the mountain feels steep. But with the right people around you — those who challenge, support, and never lose sight of the bigger picture — real, lasting improvement happens. #SchoolImprovement #Leadership #EducationMatters #AuthenticLeadership #ProgressNotPerfection

The Mowmacre library has been a project of love for me this year. The teacher in me still loves designing spaces and what a pleasure to see it become a reality this week. Thank you @MowmacreHill
