And so many of them went to State Schools. I love that. I love it so much. We need a break from Eton/Winchester types. We need people who went to schools like ours, who had mates like our mates, who understand normal life and what you can and can't afford.
Take it in. The first female chancellor. The first housing secretary who's actually lived in social housing. The first education secretary who was on free school meals. An energy secretary who actually believes in aggressively fighting climate change. Not a bad afternoon.

You must make women count as much as men; you must have an equal standard of morals; and the only way to enforce that is through giving women political power. Emmeline Pankhurst @sophie_womack

The tragic loss of Ruth Perry has shown us the urgent need for reform of school inspections. We are calling on the next govt to #AbolishOfsted and replace it with a better system that is supportive, effective and fair. Read moreπŸ‘‰ neu.org.uk/manifesto #VoteEducation

The funding situation in schools is absolutely horrific at the moment. I feel really sorry for all the headteachers and school staff who have to make impossible decisions, almost every day, about which child's education matters more and about what needs to be cut next.

For my second headship, I moved to a school with a historic "Outstanding" grading. When I'd been in post for 16 months, we finally got the call. There had been a 10 year gap between the two inspections. I was the fourth headteacher in that period. 1/

Things introverts love: - music - long walks - deep conversations - staying home all day doing nothing - movies - talking with pets - slow rainy days - books - thinking existential questions - sleeping - silence
