@Headteacherchat As a governor I'd look for 2024/25 summaries with a focus on summer term. Initial term headwinds, new cohort, staff changes and similar, then 2025/26 school improvement plans. New schemes, top level focus and objectives. I need a feeling and understanding, with access to detail

🚀 Exciting news – #ITjustworks is live! 🥳

After over two decades in schools and EdTech, I’m thrilled to start this next chapter with my own independent consultancy: #ITjustworks ✅

This new venture is about what I love most – Making technology simple, secure, and impactful for schools, trusts, and education organisations.

Here’s some of the ways I can help:
💻 Digital Strategy – Creating sustainable transformation plans that empower leaders to make confident decisions and ensure alignment with the DfE’s digital and technology standards.
🔒 Cyber Security – From audits to policies to staff training, keeping your systems and data safe.
🤖 AI in Education – Practical advice and hands-on sessions to help educators and leaders embrace AI responsibly.
⚙️ Instructional & Technical Integration – Ensuring IT infrastructure and practice are aligned with educational outcomes.
🎓 EdTech Training – Delivering engaging, practical training for tools such as Google Workspace, Canva, and more.

Because when IT just works, leaders and educators can focus on what matters most: improving learning experiences and driving long-term success.

📩 DM me to discuss how I can support your school, trust, or organisation.

Here’s to new beginnings and a future where #ITjustworks for everyone! 🙌

@rosBIGWRITING I thought the same Ros! But it was disappointing 😏.

Not a proper hob nob, not nobbly enough. More like an oaty custard cream.

[Ed Fairfield @mreddtech]

Which with my coffee? Or one of each? Or the whole lot...

[Ros Wilson @rosBIGWRITING]

I am increasingly concerned about the inaccuracy and / or out-of-date information Google and Chrome are pulling up in the name of AI as 1st answers to searches. We need to teach children (and adults) to check sources and dates.

Very few teachers understand the potential of the technology at their fingertips... 👇🏼

“The technology has made a huge difference in how our students learn."
What we do is more than technology—it’s about giving every student a chance to engage, participate, and thrive.
