There’s precedent for this. NHS GC sounds good to me. Award the George Cross to the NHS - Sign the Petition! https://t.co/8LVsT7ociu via @UKChange #NHSheroes #NHSThankYou

Furloughed for two months, so it seems like a good time to see if there's any point in trying to revive Blogstronomy, which has been dormant for 5 years now!

The hours I've wasted without this! Brilliant for elearning material as you only need small images and the free version is fine. Remove Image Backgrounds 100% automatically https://t.co/ZeruKgC0cO via @remove_bg

Great work! Thanks for the walkthrough too which was really helpful 👏👏👏

I learned how to make art/book covers come alive with iPads from @kimzito & @fuglefun, but since our Ss have chromebooks, & I want to teach them how do it, I went on mission to do the same using only web-based tools (except for @Artsonia app to view)! Details in comments #edtech

Fantastic news! Block D renovation @bletchleypark moving forwards - development of new £26 million Insititute of Technology (IoT) has been given green light by planning officers. Block D is the set of building on right as you travel up to @tnmoc & carpark. https://t.co/y6dMnzlhgb

@VPETechnology @H5PTechnology A small AWS or Google Cloud Wordpress server is a much better option as a reliable teaching platform. I’ve also used Raspberry Pi running Wordpress as a WiFi host too. Check out #kognikit too https://t.co/kZTykHUI9W

[Simon Thompson @bizzypeople]

It’s a lovely team, I can assure you!

There are a couple of new positions in Bletchley Park’s Learning team being advertised at the moment; you don’t have to complete a crossword to apply.

Get on it! https://t.co/DaVZhM70dw

@siprior I’ve always said that if a job moves you life in a direction you don’t want to go it’s time to go! And having spent a month in a job that descended into personal hell, I think a year is long enough! You’re a top bloke and you’ll find that dream role.

[Simon Thompson @bizzypeople]

Thank you @bletchleypark and @McAfee for the opportunity to help deliver online safety training in schools from Huddersfield to Maidstone in the last 20 months to more than 10k school kids . I couldn’t have done it without you 👏👏👏

We've launched a simple tool that lets you type SQL, send the results to tools like Google Sheets and Slack, and have them automatically refresh every x minutes / hours. Try it out (and let us know your thoughts!) at https://t.co/x6838QpeVl 🚀🤓
