On 1 Dec 1842 a clergyman was killed by a falling vault at Ferrey’s new church in East Grafton. It's been suggested that this collapse led to a greater stylistic collapse: that of the Romanesque Revival itself. This lecture examines the accident in detail https://t.co/J2n1M4SMbh

An interesting read... 'Phonics isn’t working - for children’s reading to improve, they need to learn to love stories.' https://t.co/D1BTzTbjxv via @ConversationUK

The lack of flexible working in our profession could certainly be off putting to those considering teaching and may link to recruitment and retention issues we currently face. Time for a change? https://t.co/R9XXagTNE4
