Great way to build learning using a simple idea 💡 @worldbeyondG3 @DaleWalmsley2
Some year 12 students have kept up with the “folding frenzy” revision technique we do at GCSE. Notes, mind map, keywords then images. It can then be used for lots of low stakes testing.

Powerful messages in assembly today - kindness is strong. The strong person can return good for evil, a blessing for a curse, and a compliment for an insult. The strong one is able to show kindness! #KindnessMatters #together #EngageEducateEmpower @Wellington_BT7
