We’re delighted that Baroness Casey has sponsored our event at the House of Lords today, all about the power of shared reading for children from vulnerable family backgrounds.

She opened the speeches with a quote we couldn’t agree with more!

And if that hour isn't quite enough, here's four more minutes of election escapism.

Another day of less than £100 sales...if you are in town and buying coffee, please consider us instead of the big chains. Our coffee is delicious and we use local suppliers, roasted here in Liverpool.

Don’t ever tell me that play doesn’t lead to writing. On a freezing cold day in forest school, south Birmingham, she couldn’t wait to write her story ❤️😻

Visuals used to support pupils express their emotional boundaries. Having the emotional safety to express yourself is essential in emotionally healthy relationships. Credit to @ScotMediation for WINA scripting #DaringVentures

@Headteacherchat @Markfinnis and the team at L30 can definitely help you with negotiating challenging conversations and equipping leaders with the relevant skills and language 👍

[Joe Brummer @JoeBrummer]

The trouble with Restorative Practices in schools is that there is too much focus on using them to respond to incidents and not enough on building community to prevent incidents. You can't restore what you didn't build.

[Joe Brummer @JoeBrummer]

Trauma doesn't heal in weekly, hour-long therapy sessions. It heals in micro-moments with trusted, attuned, and regulated humans who care. Every aspect of the child's life, including school, needs to be a part of the healing. Hence, the need for trauma-aware education!

Did you have a terrific birding trip to Iceland in May, but then lose your SD card with your 3,700 bird photos in Norfolk? I have it!
