@VillageSchoolH1 We are going to use it for LED lighting. Should make a real difference to our electricity bill.

As the head of a small, rural primary school, I wish policy makers would acknowledge and support us with the following:

1. Recruitment is even harder for us especially as staff often have to travel.
2. Rural poverty is a thing, but often not picked up in the IDACI ratings

@wendyk101 @Headteacherchat Govs have working lives too and cannot get time off during work hours so 6:15 pm for us. It does make for a long day.

@imagineinquiry Reminds me of the time you were captured by Nelson’s crew on their special mission and offered a cup of tea!😊

The @NEUnion is calling @nadhimzahawi to work with us to create a new system that supports schools and pupils, not punish them.

It's time to #ReplaceOfsted & #LetTeachersTeach.

@CensoredHead The list of jobs for head of a small school is limitless - no job too big or too small and no day long enough to get it all done. Last weeks been unreal though - had to dig very, very deep.

[Emma Hamilton-Smith @EmmaHamiltonSm2]

@CensoredHead This is our school too.
