Leadership is easy.
Until…
You have to hold someone accountable.
You’re criticized for doing the right thing.
You face a tough decision with no easy answer.
You take the blame for a mistake you didn’t make.
You lead people who don’t want to be led.
You’re expected to stay calm in chaos.
You sacrifice for the good of the team.
Leadership isn’t about a title. It’s about showing up when it’s hard.
That’s when real leaders stand out.
Choose to lead.

Potential long shot but >>>
Has anyone got a link with someone who can examine Japanese GCSE speaking exams? Or can link me up with any relevant community groups where I can try and find an examiner please? #JapaneseGCSE @XPschool 🇯🇵

This is formal but here goes. The family of Sir Tim Brighouse are very sad to announce that Tim died in the John Radcliffe Hospital today after a short illness. He was a loving husband, father, grandfather and great grandfather and a towering figure in the word of education. 1/
