I'm one of those who have joined Bluesky amid the X-odus. Are you headed somewhere else or staying put?

Poet @Tawona_Sithole on that "complicated compliment, you speak good english", saying more in a few minutes than a hundred essays on the topic: https://t.co/XAtB4dN1nH

Talking about the UK & Scotland's role in slavery doesn't make you anti-British or anti-Scottish.

We should teach children our history, the good, bad & ugly.

And yes, that also means talking about reparations, not trying to shut down the conversation about reparatory justice.

To prepare for my first-year viva tomorrow, I wanted to practise giving my presentation from memory while maintaining eye contact with the reviewers. Luckily my #catcalendar provided me with the perfect mock examiner to practise on 😸 @LorraineCalver7

The Get Ready for School programme @CARAS_LDN is one of few specialist provisions for unaccompanied young people out of education. This @RefugeeEdUK research shows the value of having teachers and caseworkers on your side, supporting children to access the right to education.

[Daniel Calvert @danielcalvert]

A while ago I worked on a peer-research project @CARAS_LDN, where young people were clear that local authorities must not keep them out of school based on the self-fulfilling belief that they are "too old to be easily integrated into mainstream schooling".

Wending the Wild Atlantic Way, warm and windless, on a late summer day. We spent our first afternoon on Ballymastocker Beach, County Donegal, going for a dip in the ocean, but mostly hiding under a parasol. #Factor50
