A @TheRestHistory inspired stroll around Fotheringhay Castle with our self confessed history geek son. The Mary, Queen of Scots series was marvellous @holland_tom @dcsandbrook 👏

Away day win for @corbytownfc - job done.

The perfect example of how a bassist can be the beating heart of a band.

A legendary player with Primal Scream, the backbone of The Stone Roses' groove. RIP Gary ‘Mani’ Mounfield x

Away days with @corbytownfc

[Alan Eathorne @aeathorne]

Half term = football trip to Italy. 3 games in 3 days - Atalanta, Roma and AC Milan. The ‘San Siro’ is a special place. Excellent advice @CalcioEngland Grazie.

Our Head of Psychological Research, Rob Nash, explores England’s teacher shortages and why the solution goes beyond recruitment.

It’s not just about bringing in more teachers, but about retaining great educators, welcoming back those who’ve left, and tailoring support where it’s needed most.

Hi. Just to clarify. There's no evidence to say 50% of Pupil Premium must be spent on teaching, 25% on targeted support & 25% on wider approaches. Those figures are a guide. Financial spending (& time spent on implementation) should be guided by pupil need, staff need & evidence.

[National Institute of Teaching @NatInstTeaching]

Want to have more impact in your school?

There's only one cohort of NPQs this year - and if you're eligible for scholarship funding there's a priority scholarship deadline of Friday 3 October to get your application in.
