I can't continue to use this platform in its current state and ownership. Thanks for the chat over the years - it was fun for a long while. I'm in another place with a mix of education, politics, cycling and personal stuff. Schoolduggery may return when I'm settled back in the UK

I've been living in Germany but I am beginning to plan a route back to the UK, probably to London. I want to train to be a Clerk to Governors, ideally online this summer. The NGA course is not available to individuals. Does anyone know of alternatives? @ruthagnew @HarryZiman ?

Thanks so much to @xtophercook for this analytic tribute to Tim Brighouse in the FT, and to @stephenkb for handing the newsletter over to him! ft.com/content/70e91bc8-fbe0…
I don't understand the motivation of those who seek to undermine ResearchEd. I saw it being born and have marvelled at the commitment and energy of Tom and his colleagues. Maybe the critics can't imagine the idea of people doing something simply because they believe it helps.
