@ThriveApproach @SDLPrimary @ExceedLP Congratulations!! So well deserved, I feel very luck to have been able to connect with you all as part of this process. Celebrating your fantastic practice, dedication and hard work. Well done :)
An inspirational keynote on safeguarding leadership from Sarah Bloomer, creating cultures of change through safety and collaboration at the CST Safeguarding Leaders Conference @CSTvoice@ThriveApproach
Really looking forward to this tomorrow! I love the inspiration and connection that comes with conferences and what important topics to be covering. I will be alongside Polly Casey from the Anna Freud Centre, talking about the magic of relationships! Can't wait @ThriveApproach
We are looking forward to heading up to Birmingham tomorrow ready for the @CSTvoice Safeguading Conference on Thursday- Courage, creativity and capacity.
Looking forward to a great line up of speakers, some of which we have heard speak before and others for the first time.
Today we celebrated #BrewMonday, taking some time out to meet for a virtual chat and cup of positivi-tea, and to share some kind words of #appreciation for each other. Here are some of the messages that our colleagues received. Join in by leaving your messages in the comments!
Reminded on Brew Monday of how joyful it is to show gratitude and appreciation for the people, teams and communities that I belong to. Feeling very grateful to be a part of the change I want to see in the world at the Thrive Approach @ThriveApproach#BrewMonday
I’m so pleased that the whole audience #CYPNowAwards gave a standing ovation to the remarkable @Kathy_CEO_CE to recognise the outstanding work of @Childrenengland and to express huge sadness its closing. Kathy’s off the cuff speech nailed it - we need to put children first
What a wonderful evening of inspiring projects and services that improve the lives of our children and young people. Big congratulations to City&Hackney CAMHS Alliance and Hackney CVS for winning the award for Mental Health and Wellbeing!

Delighted to be at the children and young people now awards as a judge, presenting the award for mental health and well-being. So fantastic to celebrate the wonderful entries and high quality work from across the categories @ThriveApproach@cypnow
@_LisaCherry I especially liked this month's edition, it really resonated with me and some of my reflections as I walk through the woods and along the country lanes. An important time of year for release, composting and slowing down:)
Let's talk menopause. Teaching is a female-dominated profession, yet support for those going through menopause is often overlooked. Symptoms can start years before reaching 51, the UK average age, and can continue past 55. It's time to break the silence. #worldmenopauseday
There are many missed opportunities to repair ruptures in relationships in schools that escalate over time-often catergorised as 'low level disruption', YP became disconnected and defensive, seeking belonging wherever they can. We need informed practice and an innovative approach
@InferiorTheory@AnnaSmee1@ThriveApproach Indeed and sadly this leaves many of our young people who need our care, isolated, disconnected and at risk. A culture and practice of belonging, community, connection and compassion is the way, informed by established research on developmentally what young people need.
'Social isolation has always been used in schools as a punishment but, actually, such punishments might have counterproductive effects.' Interesting and insightful article from a leading light in the field. So much sense here and a great deal to reflect upon @ThriveApproach
‘To make changes that would be beneficial to young people would probably mean restructuring the entire assessment system’: neuroscientist @sjblakemore on the latest research into the teenage brain and what it means for schools
