Dessert Strike
Last year I went to Kandersteg in Switzerland. There were plenty of helicopters buzzing around. There was a hotel/ice cream parlour/cafe up high. Didn't even think about it. xitter.cf/visualfeastwang/status…

#TECHOGNITION IS TODAY!
You can upload photos to the event website at techognition.org from 08:00-18:00 today and share across social media.
Together let's celebrate and showcase the amazing work of technicians in UK schools and colleges.
Same as it ever was.
Our 2024 UK School & College Technician Survey results doc is complete and will be shared tomorrow to coincide with #TECHOGNITION day.
It contains some shocking, yet not unexpected findings. We look forward to sharing this far and wide and yes that includes ensuring MPs see it.
