At 18 I failed every single A Level I took and was told I’d never go to university. Today, I step into role as Dean of @EducationLBU at @leedsbeckett as the first woman of colour in the university’s history to hold such a position.
Don’t ever let anyone tell you, “you can’t”
I am absolutely horrified by the scenes in Liverpool. My thoughts are with everybody affected.
Liverpool will always hold a special place in my heart — it is a city of unique strength, spirit and unity.
Tonight and always, you’ll never walk alone.

I have had one of the most distressing and disturbing experiences as an @OVOEnergy customer and would NOT recommend this company to ANYONE. They are appalling. @EnergyOmbudsman I look forward to moving this forward.

Another fabulous day working with the boys of @CaldiesSchool A group of tenacious, resilient young men whose voices are my inspiration.
Huge respect to staff members Rob Davies & Nathan Easthope who are the embodiment of excellence in education 🙏🏽 #exclusion#mixedraceboys
Nearly 5 years to the day and very little has improved. We may all look different, be wearing slightly different outfits but the face of racism has grown in size and technicolour. We’ve got this ✊🏽🖤🤍💜✊🏽 To the @guardian I am forever grateful for this and your continued support
Huge congratulations to two of education’s truly fabulous women. It is wonderful to see their work acknowledged in this way. Delighted for our very own @annelongfield who is one of the most inspirational people I have ever had the honour to work with.

1/2 Due to the retirement of the current post holder, we are excited to announce this upcoming opportunity to join our team. We are looking to recruit an equally energetic and collegiate individual committed to anti racist education. @leedsbeckett
