@tombennett71 I was referring to temporary exclusions which the recent data shows have increased in line with the previous trend.

@maryfordneal @suzannezeedyk Agree, but I haven't missed the point - I was writing for a wider audience not all of whom are familiar with such discourse. I hope that the point was made through argument.

@EdScotPLL To all successful candidates, have a wonderful day and congratulations to all from the University of Strathclyde.

#successfultransitions
Divya's article in TESS raises important issues about how the primary-secondary transition is perceived by both children and adults. My own research illustrates that the transition can be experienced positively if the right supports are in place.

Many thanks to everyone who contributed to and participated in the seminar series 'Poverty, attainment and wellbeing ..'. Let's make a real difference in the lives of children and young people.

@ClaireBrogan10 @PhilipTonner @GCU_GSBS @UniStrathclyde Thank you, Claire. Nice to see you there and I'm glad that you found it informative. A very important agenda if all children in Scotland are to achieve their potential.

[Joan Mowat @joan_mowat]

@JaneEMCallaghan Yes, ecological understandings of resilience are much richer and provide a much richer explanation for the relationship between poverty, attainment and mental health and wellbeing.

@TeamSCEL The distinction between leaders and followers is now much more fluid. Those who lead, follow. Those who follow, lead.
