📚An afternoon to recognise the incredible people who work in education!
This afternoon, Their Majesties hosted a Garden Party in Buckingham Palace, supported by the Department of Education, to celebrate those working in education and skills.
Thank you to the @RoyalBalletSch for your special performance in the garden!

Imagine where we would be in schools if Gove and his acolytes had never happened. We were building curriculum & pedagogy based on thinking skills, oracy, innovation & creativity. We had teachers funded to do masters & action research. We had extended schools. So many wasted years
So many @The_GA members have been inspired by Margaret's work & do have a listen to her talking about her career and work in our latest podcast. ⬇️🎧
