What an honour and humbling experience to be invited to contribute to the @UC_Links at @Berkeley_Educ, a safe space for people to share their inspirational journeys whilst working collaboratively with diverse youth communities. Thanks Mara and John!!!
It was an absolute pleasure to chair this event and celebrate with local communities. Fantastic work led by Stephanie Gillibrand bringing lived experiences of inequality to live through poems told by communities! 👇🏽
Today we are celebrating "Manchester Memories" - a beautiful book exploring triumph over adversity in local communities in the Covid-19 Pandemic.
The first of our series of events for #MCRIMLD25
@DrSophina_Ch opened the event in English, Urdu and German.

We are so excited that #BeeWell schools have been receiving their dashboards and reports today!
250 schools took part in #BeeWell in Autumn 2024, and we can’t wait to support them to explore and respond to what young people are telling us about their wellbeing.

Great to be at the @AustAssocResEd launch earlier today of a new book on ‘Consulting Students on Classroom Practice’ by @EducationUoM colleague @CraigSkerritt - presented within the context of a thoughtful and insightful critique of ‘student voice’…
A very inspiring inaugural lecture by Prof @LauraB19 researching how socio-emotion-cognition experiences manifest themselves in safe/unsafe mathematics spaces! How lucky am I to have them as my mentor? ☺️
Wonderful inaugural lecture @OfficialUoM from not-so-new Prof @LauraB19 on finding meaning in & through mathematics learner identities, mathematical relationships, and their intersections with gender.

I spent four happy years working at @UCLan. Saddening to see valuable and well-taught courses now under threat. Equally saddening is that staff "only by chance found out when at an open day meeting they were told not to advertise the at-risk courses". lep.co.uk/education/were-dev…
