Earlier this week, I presented to female sixth form students interested in STEM at Bloomberg. It was to demonstrate how easy it is to find Apprenticeship opportunities through Unifrog. Students were super engaged and asking so many questions throughout the day! ๐ฅ

In my role as Head of Year at a Hackney school during lockdown, Iโve see how far the students have come in their resilience and overcoming challenges. It was emotional leaving school this summer after 2 years there and 5 years of teaching altogether... (1/2)

Completed course on Childhood Adversity: The Impact of Childhood Maltreatment on Mental Health. I loved how the course looked through the lenses of a clinician, neuroscientist and an educator each week. I particularly enjoyed learning about brain development following adversity.
2/2 The course confirmed how a mindful education involves building trusting relationships with children, and acknowledging any special educational needs through improved research and practice. Further reading:https://t.co/dVxdtCzSYE
Starting this UCL course on @Futurelearn where I'll learn how childhood adversity impacts a childโs behaviour & development.
I'm eager to learn more about the connection between childhood adversity & mental health.

Aspiring astrophysicist Ivo, who is in Year 7, created this amazing painting during lockdown. He was inspired by a National Geographic book about planets, solar systems and galaxies. Great work!
Now more than ever, school staff and parents must work together to focus on the wellbeing of our children. Theyโve had months of no social interaction and many have lost some confidence in this vital period of growing up. This is a priority.
