So bizarre

This is a significant decision. Looking at Wigan where special and AP places are almost non-existent it is going to be hard. Great SEND resource bases in schools are a wonderful thing but that's not easy too achieve and cannot always provide the same as those separate institutions

Also, I was thinking about the article last week because I was teaching a session at university on supporting children who've been through trauma.

I'm glad you're ok...

An article I wrote 7 years ago... #EduSky www.teachwire.net/news/is-it-e...

Continuing my research into whether outdoor learning sessions can lead to re-engagement of pupils at risk of exclusion. The Forest School area was flooded so we had to move to a different area!

Does having a judgemental lorikeet staring at you help you to write? Print this out, stick it on or next to your computer and see what happens! #academicchatter #academicsky #PhDchat #resdev #highered #suaw

Love the name of the group!

Isn't it wonderful!

Looking for ways to show appreciation for a loved one this Christmas?

🥾 Invite them for a wintry woodland walk
✍ Write them a heartfelt card
🌳 Or dedicate a tree in their name

I absolutely love that someone who lives in my area has made an adult sized Christingle outfit... 🤣 Apparently it was the vicar's idea - she held up an orange during a service and one of the congregation shouted that they couldn't see it... #EduSky

The annual conundrum of how to leave beers for the binmen (who arrive in the dark) 🤣

Another classic photobomb moment from Larry. I don't think Mr. Zelenskyy minded at all.
