Lovely day at Leic Uni with PGCE English students covering Language at KS4 and 5. May have converted one or two previously nervous to teach the A Level 😁. Also: great discussions about curriculum and what it could/should be.

Signed up for an account over here a whole ago but have felt at a loss, socials-wise for a while. Just now starting to reconnect with a lot of familiar bookish and academic/English-y accounts. Feels like coming home!
