There are a lot of people on the internet saying a lot of things, and it can often feel like we're constantly being misled. So how do we know who to trust? In collaboration with @mediawise, today's episode offers some strategies. youtube.com/watch?v=o93pM-b9…

Been thinking about the word education today as my high school was listed as one of the worst schools in England. I may not have done well academically at school but my business is now defined based on what I learned in that school about people, poverty & inequality. #lifelessons

In Finland, the curriculum mandates every 45 min school lesson is followed by 15 min (outdoor) play. Having moved from UK 18mths ago, my 8yr old's improved social/emotional skills, happiness and energy are empirical proof that more quality play is essential.
