Just pottering around really. Helping nurture artistic talent in Leeds with my other half and mathematical talent via the day job. Still politically nerdy.
419 years ago the U.K. started a tradition. Each year on November 5th we burn in effigy an insurrectionist who sought to overthrow our democracy.
Time to catch up USA
If you are an educator who has no issues causing physical discomfort to children because of a twisted understanding of resilience
Please read the children’s act
If you are an educator being asked to do this
If it feels wrong, it’s because it’s wrong
Do no harm!
I really like this new article on psychological safety (a belief that we can speak up, take risks & make mistakes without fear of being judged, humiliated or punished) at work. It sets out a series of activities/approaches that all of us can use to build psychological safety in our teams. These include:
- Manual of Me
- Team Charter
- Lifelife
- Activity from Google that ranks sources of anxiety
- 5-word Fridays
- Team temperature check

@RogersHistory Children should walk out of schools thanking teachers for helping them become grown ups. Not traumatised by them abusing them for failing to hit an arbitrary standard.
