@DrJDMcMullen He will and so will you John! Camping memories dominate my kids conversations every time I am lucky enough to have them altogether for 5 mins in same country!
@derryjournal @EricHanvey2 This test has caused so much PTSD in this and other countries! The evidence is incredible and yet we allow and perpetuate the ‘selective’ approach. Fight me on this, I will win, hands down- not because I’m smarter, because I’m on the moral high ground.
@ASCL_UK@RealGeoffBarton You have been amazing Geoff, in the short time I’ve known you I have felt supported and in the company of a genuinely good guy. Enjoy your retirement and may it be a long and happy one!
"I have been privileged to serve you as leader of ASCL for the past seven years. I couldn't have been prouder to have been there with you."
@RealGeoffBarton brings his final keynote as General Secretary to an end.

Huge thanks to James Kerr for bringing the first morning of keynotes at #ASCL2024 to a close and an address packed with important messages on leadership and an invitation to reflect on the legacy you leave.
"Stay humble, stay learning."
The money for public sector pay is on the table. The problem remains the lack of govt so why are strikes going ahead? Strike action only works if there is a mechanism for active negotiation- currently not possible here!
@miss_mcinerney@TeacherTapp Back in my time at @KingEdVISchool, we turned off all bells. Never regretted it. Punctuality improved and lesson transitions became calmer. Indeed … wait for it … we awarded ourselves the No-Bell Peace Prize. (Sorry).
Paula Vennells, CEO of Post Office, given CBE 2019 "for services to the Post Office and to charity"
Alan Bates has refused an OBE while she retained hers. #MrBatesvsPostOffice
For years Labour @KevanJonesMP has been officially asking for her CBE to be withdrawn.
Here is his SECOND letter to the Honours Forfeiture Committee 👏🏼👏🏼
The award of a CBE to Paula Vennells, "a person who resided over the widest miscarriage of justice in English legal history, is utterly wrong and deeply insulting to those who suffered prosecutions during her tenure."
We await the reply from a Committee which needs to pull its finger out.
