I sometimes get asked about the common issues I see across primary schools and the kind of support I offer as a result. This brief blog explains this stuff.
As ever, retweets really appreciated (given that the algorithm hates links to blogs).

I lead two primary schools.
Homework is inherently inequitable.
Children should not need homework to succeed in their learning - the school day should be sufficient.
Thanks @Suchmo83 for this book. I used so much of your previous book when shaping the reading strategy for my trust. I can see I’ll be applying lots of the brilliant ideas from this book too.

Fancy another alternate reads poster? There’s a wealth of brilliant children’s books around memories and/or intergenerational relationships so instead of reading Grandpa’s Great Escape, here are some alternatives. Which other books would you include?

Why read Billionaire Boy when there’s already a brilliant selection of children’s books out there exploring friendships? Here’s some of my favourites but which others would you suggest instead of Walliams’ book?

Why read Bad Dad when you have an incredible selection of high quality, exciting parent/carer & child adventures to enjoy? Here’s some I’ve particularly enjoyed but what else would you add?

1 car crash and 2 of the most difficult but greatest months of my life.
I’m an emotional mess tonight but I just want to say, no matter how dark a place you are in. It can and WILL get better. 2 years ago I was in the darkest place in my life, 2 years later we have made history.
Thank you to everyone who believed in me. I love you all very much. I’ll do a post when I’m able to process what’s just happened. MENTAL HEALTH MATTERS ❤️
