@2ndry_Teacher @SafeSENCOSaeed this brings back memories in the freezing cold huts at HT 🤣

[Chris Devaney @ChrisDevz]

@SafeSENCOSaeed As the great @DrGaborMate said “we equate discipline with punishment but the word shares the same root as disciple. A disciple is somebody who follows, somebody who learns. How do we get our kids to follow us? We do it by warm nurturing relationships in which we set the example”.

[Chris Devaney @ChrisDevz]

@SafeSENCOSaeed 18yrs ago you started teaching me 🤣 one of the best teachers ever!

[Chris Devaney @ChrisDevz]

@SuePenna1 Really great bunch who truly embodied the core principles of TI Practice 🥰

In Milton Keynes for the next two days, creating some reflective opportunities with @Cranstoun_org and supporting some of their CYP staff to be more curious when connecting with young people who are living with the impacts of trauma @rockpoollife @SuePenna1 @JoMajauskis
