“Something that many educators already understood is that one size does not fit all. This is why education is so complex and why it has been so challenging to bring about improvements because there’s no silver bullet.” https://t.co/WgKJDcD9ap @bterrylong

“Amid pockets of delusional denial, we will explain the science, as clearly as possible, for as wide an audience as possible. We will also explain the breadth of the impact of climate change.” Need more of this in the media. Well done CNA!

I left school with 1 GCSE! I felt depressed and worthless.Then one day 10 years ago, after trying various jobs, I had a go at writing. My 9th book was published last year, we're all good at something, it sometimes just takes a while to find our thing #gcseresultsday2019

Effect of bag tax AND awareness campaigns “Since 2015, when a 5p charge was introduced to tackle plastic pollution, the number being used is down by 90%.
Customers now buy, on average, 10 bags a year compared to 140 bags in 2014” https://t.co/CICoNvRvur

Taking a walk at lunch time:
-- reduces stress
-- decreases afternoon fatigue
-- increases enthusiasm for one's work.
