Hello! Introducing a brand new, free history teacher story exchange. This is for any history teacher who has written a historical story for use in the classroom, and wants to give others the chance to use it. We’ll host any submissions on our Google Drive. Happy submitting!

Delighted to be joining this team, and having the opportunity to educate about this important region! Schools in Oxford, if you fancy a rich, exciting and historically rigorous session for your students about the Middle East, please let me know.

Reading the independent investigation into Child Q’s treatment. It’s very hard reading.

Findings are important for all schools to reflect on - particularly on behaviour policies and safeguarding.

Below are some particularly powerful points in the report & reflections🧵👇 1/5
