If you missed the Aurora last night and / or would like another go, then it looks like there is a good chance we’ll have another display this evening.

Northern Lights dazzle around the world as G4 solar storm hits Earth

Have you been fortunate enough to spot the aurora borealis in the night sky? If you have, let us know in the comments

[Chris Page - Meteorologist @ChrisPage90]

Many are asking if we’ll see the #Aurora again tonight.

Activity is expected to slowly decline, however there is a good chance (cloud permitting) you’ll be able to see it again tonight.

Another year of poor ITT recruitment is on the cards, with 11 out of 17 subjects below target, and geography and primary also likely to be below. Bursaries and international recruitment propping some subjects up a little, but generally weak like last year

They have all the solutions.

What did one tectonic plate say when he bumped into the other?

Sorry! My fault.

[Patrick Freeman @PatrickFCumbria]

@SchoolsWeek However,this is 1 scheme I think does have some positivity. 1) Giving some much needed funding to an excellent cause &focus on the skills these young people have. 2) Helping raise the profile of a great job to the sort of people we actually would like to see in the profession

[Patrick Freeman @PatrickFCumbria]

@SchoolsWeek Scouts do however offer everything that is being squeezed out of schools in terms of long term employability… leadership skills, team skills, resilience… I think the problem that will occur is-scouts will be offered far more money in other vocations…and a work life balance….
