A vibrant, colourful illustration with rainbow rays spreading outward from the centre. In the middle sits a black cloud shape with bold white handwritten text that reads: “You don’t need permission to fly, the wings are yours + the sky belongs to no one.” The overall tone is uplifting and empowering, with bright reds, oranges, yellows, greens, blues and purples radiating behind the message.

“What if I fall? Oh, but my darling, what if you fly?” Erin Hanson

Sometimes the reminder we need is that we don’t have to wait for permission. Our ideas, our voice, our direction are already ours.
We’re allowed to go further than we once imagined.

I’ve worked 1:1 with loads of struggling readers most had poor reading instruction then not prompt enough or untrained support- never yet met one that didn’t get there - some were slower needed more repetition but they all got there with explicit teaching using systematic science based programme

Focus on what’s now on what’s real 👇

Look within the ordinary moments for something beautiful

Retrospect often gives a very different perspective

Sometimes walking away is the only reasonable response!!

I know how they spend that time differs but it made me think

I always found the quiet children could be a bit of a worry - sadly in busy classrooms often easy to ignore

Square illustration in layered shades of pink with scalloped, cloud like shapes radiating from the centre and small white dots scattered across the background. In the middle, handwritten black text reads: “Your life isn’t yours if you always care what others think.” The overall tone is bold, playful and direct, with a strong contrast between the dark lettering and the soft pink background.

“Your time is limited, so don’t waste it living someone else’s life.” Steve Jobs

You don’t need everyone’s approval.
You don’t need to explain every choice.
You are allowed to live in a way that feels true to you.

Be kind to yourself.
