Hi all,
The CEO of the Academy Trust was to have taken part in the Channel 4 series “Undercover Boss”. Sadly after just 10 minutes, he was sworn at, spat at, had his wallet stolen and lost his trousers. He hadn’t even been in lessons. This was all during Staff Briefing.
Thanks x

Hi all,
We have had to let the new Head of PE go. It turns out he has some GCSEs, doesn’t scream at the pupils, he hasn’t hit anyone, was seen reading a book, and the final straw, when he arrived at The Academy yesterday, he wasn’t wearing shorts. Just not good enough.
Thanks x

Putin, Lukashenko, Netanyahu, Orban etc joining Trump’s “Board of Peace”
There’s us thinking it’s a new United Nations, when it’s actually a new SPECTRE

INEOS & Glazers have sacked #Amorim, not because of poor performances on the pitch (of which there have been many) but because he said some critical things about them

Leaders more interested in their corporate reputation than performance will always fail

Hi all,
The Academy Trust CEO is coming for a visit next Tuesday. Make sure that you are smartly dressed. Male staff will bow and women staff are to curtesy should they be approached. There’s a “how to“ video on TEAMS. He’s got a CBE, so he’s worth a million of you lot.
Thanks x

Would it be too much trouble for the news channels and newspapers to point out that this clip that Farage is using to incite riots is actually from Greece in 2015? @SkyNews @BBCNews @thetimes @guardian @DailyMirror @DailyMail @Telegraph

“I need your kiss...But Love and Duty called you someplace higher...

I was there that sickening day back in 2001. The images are vividly tattooed in my brain. Driving to work as I do every day I would take the Brooklyn Battery Tunnel. While we were in the tunnel we had heard on the radio that a "small plane" crashed into one of the Twin Towers. As we exited the tunnel, we were at a standstill for what seemed like an eternity. All we could do was watch the first tower in flames. Then just minutes after, as if everything just went into slow motion, I witnessed that second plane hit the Tower in real time, just 2 blocks away from where I was stranded. It just didn't seem real to me. Like everyone else you're just frozen, until you have that "moment" to process the impossible. But that's not the image that always "hits me". The image that will always shake me is replaying the chaos after the reality set in. We just left our cars, and ran from the Towers towards the FDR drive. As we ran from the hell behind us, I'm passing those Brave Firemen RUNNING INTO those burning towers without a thought of hesitation. To this day it's unfathomable to me. The term Heroes, Courage and Bravery are not nearly enough to describe those men and women. That day I was blessed and saved. Unlike countless others I was able to come home. I NEVER take that for granted.

But every 9/11 anniversary, I also remember, that in the days and weeks after those horrifying attacks, how everyone came together. How all our other “problems”, the ones we thought were so "bad" and “important”, became insignificant. All the hate and barriers we built against each other were instantly cast aside. For a small time we unselfishly, and without a thought, helped one another, no matter what race, religion, or color. We became just one human race. We showed during that time, that we are capable to put aside all the pettiness, hate, stupidity and live the way G-D intended us to.

Unfortunately as time passed, we slowly reverted back. I guess the shame of it all is that it shouldn’t have to take a “tragedy” to help one another, to be good to one another, or to wake us up and remind us what’s really important in life. To stop complaining about such insignificant matters, because as we remember every year on 9/11 , it could be so much worse. So much worse.

We will NEVER forget the events on that sickening day. But we should also never forget during that time, how easily we rose above all of our differences, how we treated one another, and most importantly how that day reminded us how important and short life is. It shouldn’t take a tragedy for us to realize that it isn’t that hard, or even impossible.

Today where we use the term "Heroes" so loosely for Rock Stars or Sport figures. Those are not heroes. The firemen, the policemen, the first responders, the volunteers, and of course the fallen on that world changing day, THOSE people are your definition of the term: HEROES.

Today we remember the fallen.

"May Your Strength Give Us Strength
May Your Faith Give Us Faith
May Your Hope Give Us Hope
May Your Love Give Us Love"

There's never a bad time to share a video of that time Akala humiliated Yaxley-Lennon on TV, but now seems as good a time as any.
