Chair of National Association for Hospital Education, ex CEO of AP Trust, consultant who is passionate about the needs of children with medical needs & SEND
We’re all super proud of our amazing Abbey School winning the“empowering young leaders” award at the 2026 @YouthSportTrust annual conference. What a team!
Beautiful morning in Northamptonshire as I set off for the @YouthSportTrust conference pre meet with @prusapuk colleagues - looking forward a day of collaboration & learning #thisisap
@tes Hope stakeholders have been involved, such as pupils with medical conditions & their representatives, & experts in providing support for them from alternative provisions such as LA hospital / out of school education too. @CathCathkitchen ıs the most experienced person in this
Not a single commitment in this 10 year strategy to support and invest in the over crowded, crumbling special & AP school estate. Nothing. Nada. Zilch. I’m not surprised anymore, but I wish I could move beyond the chronic disappointment this still yields

21 behaviour and attendance hub schools named - are any of them AP or special? Why are we still being missed out of the narrative?? https://t.co/uCxQGQNeR2
@llewelyn20 One thing that feels really important is to elevate others and share in their joy when they do work wherever. I’m forever recommending @SwailesRuth , Sue Cowley (cant find her), @CathCathkitchen amongst others to say “actually they do better than me on this”.
Thank you to @av1_noisolation for persuading me to write my first blog about challenges and triumphs for children with medical needs - an a plug for the book of course! Check it out: https://t.co/8PnD1QoKDm
