Director of School Improvement | EYFS Lead | Passionate about Best Start in Life |Strategic Safeguarding Lead Proud to have achieved Outstanding as Headteacher
January, you’ve been a month to be proud of! 🌟
Our pupil leadership initiative featured in @thetimes & The Telegraph, showcased on @bbcpointswest & BBC Wiltshire, and was even picked up by German broadcaster @ZDF! Hearing students & parents share its impact has been incredible.
Another highlight was attending @WholeEducation conference—connecting with passionate educators & talking about the amazing work @WhiteHorseFed does with its #TWHFENRich curriculum. Plus I get to work with the BEST colleagues every single day.
💫Education is a world like no other—never a dull moment!💫
More stunning artwork and beautiful poetry from across our schools as part of Poetry & Art Week.
Inspired by the wonderful poem ‘Hope is the Thing with Feathers’, our children have explored hope, imagination and creativity through words and art.
So much talent and creativity on display

There really is no better way to start a new school year than with hope. 💛
We are really looking forward to welcoming our children back tomorrow and to begin our Poetry and Art Week across our primary phase, inspired by Emily Dickinson’s beautiful poem ‘Hope is the Thing with Feathers.’
We can’t wait to see the poetry, artwork and ideas that children across our Trust bring to life.

Remembering the late, great Dolly, who brought joy, comfort and inspiration to so many - including the millions of children given free books through her Imagination Library. We will always ❤️ you.
My 2026-27 overview of picturebook assembly suggestions is now ready. I've continued to focus on empathy and inclusion, linking the book selections to significant dates across the year.
I really hope it's useful. The link can be found here: https://t.co/JBuWKFD2sh

Run don’t walk to Sainsbury’s now!
90p and £1.40!!!
In this economy; this is ALMOST as good as my year 11s smashing their exams!
@moses_brian Thank you so much! We’ve already planned this year’s unit, but I’ve saved this for next year. We also do a mini poetry unit later in the year, so this will be incredibly helpful. I really appreciate you sharing it.
As we prepare for our third annual TWHF Primary Poetry & Art Week this September, I’ve been looking back at just a few examples of the incredible artwork our children have created over the past two years. The artwork they produced was simply phenomenal! Here are some examples from Reception to Year 6!
I can’t wait to reveal this year’s poetry and art focus… watch this space.

A fantastic few days last week with Yr7-9 pupils heading to Weston-super-Mare for the day and then camping overnight! There were laughs, snoring and a few tears but the pupils (and staff) had a great time and an amazing opportunity for our pupils. 👏👏
How lovely is this artwork by Year 2 pupils at @StMarysPrimary3 (yes, Year 2!!)
So beautiful to see on display and a deserved winner at Devizes Eisteddfod arts award.

We had a fantastic day at MAT Excellence conference yesterday, listening to some amazing speakers. It was great to hear @SiCowley speak about ‘locking in the rhythm’ to support trusts in developing their super teams.
