I’ve wanted a place for my books ever since I was 8 years old, admiring the libraries on Beauty & the Beast.
Now in my mid-30s, I’ve finally got a little space for them ☺️📚

So important for our pupils to know that there are thriving creative industries in Wales #jobs #aspiration @LSP_Headteacher

A fabulous evening was had by all at the year 7 & 8 Halloween disco yesterday evening! 👻 A big thank you to everyone who attended, and to all staff who stayed to help out. A special thanks to our 6th form helpers Ben, Alex, and Jack - you were fab! 🎃 @CLC_Maths @MrBerryLSP
If anyone’s looking for a wonderfully fantastic children’s read, I can highly recommend The Wind Child by Polish born author @GabrielaHouston . Based on Eastern European mythology, it’s packed full of Slavic Gods and Monsters. Perfect to fire that burgeoning imagination! ❤️
I only have three weeks of mat leave left with our little pickle. As much as I love my job and my school, I don’t really know how I’m going to cope with not being able to spend all day with her.
Please donate if you can, for such an excellent cause close to our hearts 🥰

This needs to heard. Knowledge really matters and can’t be left to chance.
I gave a speech at the Policy Forum for Wales on Friday, setting out a range of recent evidence on curriculum reform, and calling for Welsh Government to reconsider the role of knowledge in the curriculum framework. #CfW

Willow’s seasonal bookshelf ❄️🌿 we now get to indulge in the wonderful children’s books available, as well as introducing Willow to some of the classics I loved as a child. She’s only tiny, but still loves to hear the story and explore the pictures and pages with her hands 🥹❤️
Some fantastic snow-based trips going on this half term at LSP - follow @LSP_Iceland for all their updates!

A groundbreaking study shows kids learn better on paper, not screens. Now what? theguardian.com/lifeandstyle…
About to do some Sunday baking and this really bugs me every time.
@Hersheys is all this plastic packaging really necessary for 10 peanut butter cups? I mean come on, what on earth?!
I’m in my “matching jumpers with my daughter” era 🥹❤️ #TeachersMatLeave

If this is what went wrong with CfE in Scotland then we need to make sure we don’t make same mistakes with CfW. The role of knowledge cannot be downgraded. If it is, we risk widening gaps further.

Thank you Edmund for this detailed, shocking and so, so sad, summary of the first day of Ruth Perry's inquest. I hope everyone involved in education in any way reads this. Poor, poor Ruth, a good headteacher helpless against a dreadful, cruel inspectorate.
