The East of England group had a great in-person ITP yesterday @sprites2015, focusing on how to create effective routines and challenging existing thinking about behaviour systems in schools. Looking forward to more of that enthusiasm today! 🌟

Sing, sing, sing. Sing by yourself. Sing with your family. Sing with your friends. Sing in a choir. Sing in the car. Sing in the shower. Don’t let anyone stop you from singing, or tell you that you shouldn’t sing. Your voice is yours. Use it. Enjoy it. Sing, sing, sing.
