Sorry to hear from a Trustee that the flower meadow in Ashplats Wood was mown just as orchids and wild flowers were appearing. I'm told it wasn't the contractors. If you have any info on this, I can pass it on. Rare wild flowers often thrive in plots that may look neglected. šŸ„€

The bulb in the overhead projector has blown. The Banda copier is out of ink. The big TV is playing up. The Coomber has gone off to be repaired. And now it's time for us to go too. Thank you for your company. It's meant more than you'll ever know. God bless you all. G&M ā¤ļø

Why is no one in the media making the connection between the school curriculum introduced by Gove 2010-2014 that focussed on academic subjects at the expense of vocational studies and the report on the number of young people not in work, education or training? Thanks Threads

In the best schools,care for the children goes beyond the classroom: The office staff greeting them warmly The lunch staff making sure they’ve eaten The caretaker stopping to help The cleaner smiling in the corridor TAs and teachers encouraging them to keep going Different roles. Same shared care for children.

🚨 BREAKING: half of people in the UK have lost access to community spaces - with families in the most deprived areas losing them fastest. Parks, libraries, leisure centres are essential for our mental and physical health. We all need places to connect. Especially when life is tough.

There are educators right now buying things with their own money,skipping breaks (breaks?),replying to emails late at night & carrying the emotional weight of dozens of children daily… …& still being told they ā€œdon’t do enough.ā€ Teachers deserve far more respect than they get.

What if the biggest thing holding primary education back is in fact…time? Time to talk. Time to think. Time to fail and learn from it We want resilient,creative children but structure their day so tightly there’s barely space to become either. Are we educating… or managing?
