👏👏 I remember the day I arrived at a friend’s house & said how happy I was that a man walking behind me crossed the road, sped up, then crossed back in front of me to carry on. Turned out he was in the house, was her new boyfriend and had done it intentionally. It matters.
Please give this a look, especially if you’re a bloke. Little things can make a big difference.

Anyone from SGHS still in touch with Andrea?
Andrea, we met today in Bristol. Pat is livid I didn’t get your number. She and Corrine have been hunting for you for 20 years. Could you email me on [email protected] (or if you know Andrea, tell her)

A book filled with Kathryn Riley's compassion, commitment to involving children as partners and knowledge of how that can be mobilised by teacher leaders. Richly illustrated with drawings by young research partners from 40 years of studying what it means to belong at school.
Congratulations to Kathryn Riley! Her new #openaccess book Compassionate Leadership for School Belonging publishes today! #openaccess ow.ly/abFS50ItFFo @IOE_London
Running through Karl Jenkins’s glorious Armed Man ahead of scratch performance at Albert Hall tomorrow. Can’t get through even the first movement without weeping. Too real, too painful. Will be an emotional night.
