It’s Friday! Although I’ve worn blue shoes on Fri for ages, tomorrow will be one year since my first #BlueShoeFriday post (though I didn’t use the hashtag back then). So I’m posting this wee anniversary celebration, but on a Friday to as not to confuse. Happy Friday. 😀

Amgad Salih, a 19 year old student from Peckham who is studying at the University of Oxford, shared this picture that his friend organised. They recreated the typical Oxford Bullingdon picture but with black students, to show black representation and inspire more Peckham people.

Competencies were inspired by Global Health Competencies for UK Health Professionals (2). During development, we consulted widely with colleagues working/studying in communication disability field in LMIC, SLTs from UK who worked abroad & CTI members.

R is our school's top English student. She got 9 at GCSE. She got A at AS. She is studious, precise, deeply thoughtful. She has just had her A Level grade reduced from A* to C, apparently just because she goes to a disadvantaged school. It might help if you liked her poem.

Fascinating reflection @AcquireSLT. I was shocked to read how many interviews it took to get your first post. Thank you for shining a light on the bias that sadly exists in our profession. Well done Cheshire for setting you on the path to the inspiring and driven #slt you are now
