Proud to be Principal of The Bourne Academy in Bournemouth. Views are my own

@tes @TheNFER Been saying this for years. No accountability and “rewarded” with higher Ofsted grades whilst vulnerable students with additional needs need to travel to access more inclusive schools

[Mark Avoth @AvothMark]

Good luck everyone. We are so proud you.

[The Bourne Academy @BourneAcademy]

The Bourne Academy wishes everyone good luck in their upcoming exams!

Despite some less than fluent sentences, I think I managed to get the message across that, together, schools can help to prevent homelessness @HomewardsUK @BourneAcademy
