Headmaster at the Dixie Grammar School, an independent school for boys and girls aged 3-18 who are kind, achieve and reflect the #DixieDifference.

A weekend full of report writing - it is always a privilege to review pupils' achievements. Their respect, resilience, courage, commitment and care are recognised in our new rewards system and with just under 80000 house points awarded, this really has been a wonderful term.

I hope Labour might pause their thinking on VAT on fees as the right policy.

@bphillipsonMP Insulting. Completely out of touch with reality.

All set up for #openmorning in our new Design Studio- looking forward to welcoming our visitors! #DesignandTechnology #CADCAM #Engineering #Design #Technology @DixieGrammar @DTassoc

It has long struck me as odd that Labour's policy will harm the least well-off independent schools while potentially helping the most well-off (if they reclaim VAT from capital expenditure while passing the full 20% cost of VAT onto parents).

I understand that Labour played to maximise their chances within the system we have, & that voters might have behaved differently under PR. And I know that PR would have benefitted Reform (whose politics horrify me). But this set of results is democratically embarrassing.

As our pastoral team prepares for next academic year and considers key strategic questions concerning team structure and pupil use of technology, some holiday reading has just arrived. @JonHaidt

Miles gave an assembly at the JS this am. He talked about dreams and commitment. He explained what university is, and how applications work & finished by encouraging them to chase dreams, work hard and embrace every opportunity. #resilience #commitment #courage. @isaschools

@DixieGrammar @isaschools Miles also played the flute in the @isaschools Young Musician final last wk. On Mon he is giving an assembly to our Junior pupils about dreams and resilience. He will encourage them to work hard, overcome challenges and embrace every opportunity. He is also playing the flute!

I get paid for this - a Christmas sing song with the Junior School pupils and parents to mark the end of term. How lucky am I?!

[Richard Lynn @DixieGSHead]

A weekend of report writing with my @Churchers1722 fountain pen and @DixieGrammar ink. It is wonderful to see the progress of pupils and a privilege to write on their reports.

[Richard Lynn @DixieGSHead]

Reception Class children taught me how to sound out letters and then squash them together to make a word. They showed great #resilience and super skills. #DixieValues @isaschools

In Positive Education we created Xmas baubles showing goals & how to achieve them. We had footballers, vets, fashion designers, a defence lawyer & a wrestler.
We learned how to break goals down & illustrated each stage.
