Loved seeing the impact of #Maths lessons taught with a #SocialJustice lens—focusing on collective responsibility & supporting each other 🤝 when mistakes happen through real-life examples 🌍. Our young people are now embracing errors & building team practices to check their work! 💜🧡 #Collaboration

Colonization took away so much more than land and resources. It took away identity, tradition, rituals, names, history

Our third Anti-Racism Carnival. The young people loved it. Thanks for everyone that came along and supported us. #Fun #LookingOutForEachOther #Belonging

So incredibly #proud of the #inspiration and hard work these amazing young people are putting into organising this event🧡👏 #PupilVoice #MakingChange

Excellent 1st workshop focusing on supporting #neurodivergent workers, especially around the lack of understanding of reasonable adjustments. Powerful and moving for colleagues to share their individual experiences. 🙏🏼

The magic of 2025, itself is a square 45 x 45 = 2025

It's the first square after 1936

It's also the sum of cubes, of all the single digits, from 1 to 9, 1³+2³+......9³= 2025

Happy New Year 😍

Happy Fibonacci Day! 🎉
Interesting Story:
Zero, introduced by Indian mathematician Brahmagupta, faced resistance in Europe, which used Roman numerals—lacking a zero.
Fibonacci challenged this, showing the power of zero. A great story for the classroom! #LoveMaths

Delighted to be back with the Education Scotland Building Racial Literacy Programme, learning from the inspiring & compassionate Dr. Geetha Marcus on understanding decolonisation in education. A powerful session highlighting that decolonisation is inclusion ❤️ #EdScotBRL
