New (academic) Year Resolutions…
1. Take lunch at least 3 days a week
2. Walk at least 10,000 steps a day
3. Use a notebook - rather than random scraps of paper which end up messed up in my bag!!

Thank you @RoyalDerngate! A CNS tradition that everyone looks forward too!
Taking a whole school/phase to a theatre started as a crazy idea with @KatEdwardsHT and I a few years back and it keeps getting better each year! This year being joined by Reception & Year 7! 715 people!!
This is excellent news! The timing is unfortunate (mild word choice) as providers have designed training programmes and many mentors are mid-way through however the actually mentoring that can take place in these 20 hours will be far more beneficial 🙌🏼
Exclusive: The government has scrapped an 'excessive' requirement that mentors of trainee teachers undertake 20-hours of training with 'immediate effect', following complaints from school leaders
