The best conference session I’ve attended since… the last time I was lucky enough to listen to and be inspired by Ben Walden. He is such a compelling, insightful speaker - and working with great source material! @HMC_Org
Sue Woodroofe, HMC Chair, sets a serious agenda for serious times and offers an optimistic, inspiring rallying call for action that is needed for the children in our care, for all children in our country.

BREAKING: A new report shows that the end may be in sight for AIDS, the world’s deadliest pandemic.
The Joint United Nations Program on HIV and AIDS says that Botswana, Eswatini, Rwanda, Tanzania and Zimbabwe have all reached “95-95-95” targets, meaning 95% of the people who are living with HIV know their status, 95% of those people are on lifesaving antiretroviral treatment, and 95% of people in treatment are virally suppressed.
Across eastern and southern Africa, new HIV infections have been reduced by 57% since 2010. Also since 2010, the percentage of pregnant and breastfeeding women living with HIV who have access to antiretroviral treatment has nearly doubled, and new infections among children have more than halved.
There’s more work to be done, but the UN said the world could end AIDS by 2030 with sufficient investment from global leaders.
One @ExeterSchoolUK pupil did especially well at the @BritishRowing Junior championships yesterday - winning the WJ141x race in style. Very well done indeed!
Hats off to our IB DP pupils receiving results this week. 👏The average points score of St. Paul’s is 34.6 points (global average is 30.24) and we are especially proud of our 10 high fliers who scored 40 or more. Read more: https://t.co/6sq4xNnVhx
It’s #ThankYouDay! Today, we’re putting the spotlight on the Volunteers that make the DofE happen. Without all of you, delivering the Award to young people across the UK simply wouldn't be possible.
Thank you for helping young people build lifelong belief in themselves 💜
