🎉 Tai'bat 🎉

Tai'Bat has spoken up about school traditions that have excluded women. She is active in the Muslim Student Association and the African-Caribbean Society and has used this platform to speak out about Islamophobia and discrimination against Black women.

🎉 Kobi 🎉

Kobi founded the Muslim Students Association after finding it lonely as a revert in a family community. He noticed a gap in provision and wanted to fill it, to make school a place where it's easier to practice their religion.

🎉 Cossie 🎉

Cossie's teachers wrote that they have been instrumental in helping school leaders develop the process for trans or questioning pupils in school - advocating for those who wish to change pronouns or uniform. That's not all though ⬇️

🎉 Vieran 🎉

Vieran has started the Young Carer's Society this year. This began a campaign to create a more open culture in school, especially for junior pupils who may not know how to access the support they need.

For #PowerOfYouthDay we wanted to take a moment to celebrate some of the incredible young people that entered our #StudentVoiceAwards this year 🎉

Take a look at how they're bringing about change ⬇️⬇️

New paper by the esteemed @dan_calder and myself in @PhiMiSci reviewing some of the biggest objections to the structural representation account. Hopefully something of value in there for the rep debate more generally too!

When I decided to pursue a career in teaching, rather than academia, I always hoped to publish the occasional paper. 5 years in, here we are. A massive thanks to coauthor @Jonny_CW_Lee for his endless patience.

Good article in todays @thetimes. Highlights just how far ahead @CHSchoolHorsham is on bursary spending for pupils from low income households. Such a special place of which to be part. Leading the way in social mobility.

[Claudia Hammond @claudiahammond]

Do we all see the same thing? This study by academics @SussexUni and @UofGlasgow on the way you see the world is fascinating to take part in. You can test yourself on all sorts of extraordinary tasks. Fun to do and important research. @anilkseth https://t.co/49ih2OJpfm

@NotabeneBrown Congratulations 👏👏

'Cognitive science' is a mouthful and should be renamed 'cognology'.

[Jonny Lee 🧠🪴 @Jonny_CW_Lee]

Fascinating data on "doing nothing" in non-industrial societies. 👇
