#Migraine #ClusterHeadaches #SuicideHeadaches After nearly 25yrs of these types of debilitating headaches, I’ve been on this for 6months (taken every 2days, with no side effects). I can honestly say it’s reduced them by 90%. incredible. If you suffer the same, get yourself referred.

Big thanks to @jonnyuttley.bsky.social for tag teaming a session on Inclusion for our aspiring leaders yesterday. #Ocmat #Inclusion #Leadership

it’s feeling more Grit than anything else this academic year. 😑

❤️ #LostInTranslation

Anyone that has a #Schnauzer will understand this is our permanent view. 🤦🏼‍♀️

When your daughter insists that a shark outfit is the only appropriate attire for a party on the beach… 😂 🦈

Splendid post from @moderncassie.bsky.social Who said grea blogs are a thing of the past. This is useful, actionable, and full of moral purpose. Thanks Cassie 😍

Really happy to have contributed to ‘Small and Mighty’ about the magic of small schools. They punch above their weight in heart, community and impact. Small schools matter, let’s protect and celebrate them. #SmallAndMighty #Inclusion #SEND #SmallSchools

Little known secret. Primary Head teachers have a secret cupboard where they keep the nits, they release them every year, so that the parents have something to moan about other than the parking outside.

Friday vibes with Larry! ❤️ #Schnauzer #HappyAsLarry

Think this is the best picture I’ve taken of London.

1. A story. Please read. Reposts hugely appreciated on this. You'll see why in a bit. I was born in Pakistan and lived there until I was 4. My parents worked there as doctors. While we were there we were very close to a couple called Christine and Mike Miles.

Lots of news around today but a quick thread to walk through the new Ofsted inspections ahead of what is likely to be a turbulent few months either side of the summer . . . .

The wistful gaze of a dog who wants the rain to stop so he can go for a walk. 😂 #Larry #Schnauzer

Yes!

Emma is one of the wisest voices in UK Primary education and its bizarre that she doesn't have more followers here on Bluesky. Do yourself a favour, read this blog and give her a follow.

Little known fact: If it's red smoke we get an antipope.

R has set up a club…apparently it’s a ‘mood’ not a ‘movement’ ….🤷🏼‍♀️🤷🏼‍♀️🤷🏼‍♀️ #WormClub

SEND is 'lose, lose, lose,' unless you're in line for some of these tasty £750pd & £900pd contracts with DfE Local government experience mandatory, experience of delivering SEND provision not required www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/notice/31286...

Brilliant 😂

The most wonderful day watching friends and colleagues run the #LondonMarathon 🙌🏻 Even tracked this old guy because we had to sort his feet out at 17miles! 😂

Full of really rich, practical advice; excellent! @moderncassie.bsky.social moderncassie.blogspot.com/2025/04/part...

New blog! Part 2 of ‘Two roles, one mission’ ‘…when pupils can see the strength of collaboration between adults, they begin to trust the structures around them. That trust forms the foundation for every other element of support.’ moderncassie.blogspot.com/2025/04/part...

Teachers in England with 5+ years’ experience — can you help a PhD student? She’s looking for detailed survey responses on career development (interviews also welcome). forms.office.com/Pages/Respon...

Inclusion is not a ‘bolt-on’. Do read.

Every Thursday, my dad takes Larry for a walk and then to the pub. Every Thursday I pick him up looking heartbroken that the day is over…🤦🏼‍♀️ #Schnauzer #NotHappyAsLarry

"When SENCos and school leaders intentionally choose to lead together, they create schools where pupils with SEND are not an afterthought, but a central part of every decision." 👏👏

Except the funding for schools is woefully inadequate. Just like funding for free school meals has failed to keep up with actual costs, funding for breakfast clubs means schools will have to subsidise whilst also battling unfunded pay rises. Once again rhetoric trumps delivery

An incredible read! Thank you for writing this!! 💪🏻

Great blog here: brings real clarity and urgency to best practice.

New Blog: 'Two roles, one mission' In part 1, I explore the models of partnership that exist in schools today, from silos to full integration, and why aligned leadership is the foundation of meaningful inclusion. moderncassie.blogspot.com/2025/04/two-... #SEND #Inclusion #Leadership #EduSky

Beautiful as usual. #Cello ❤️

A regulated adult is the most powerful tool we have. Not the loudest. Not the strictest. The calmest.

Was reluctant to watch this (I didn’t want to ruin the Scorsese doc) but…it’s really good. #BobDylan #ACompleteUnknown ❤️

🏫 England’s biggest council has shelved proposals as part of a new inclusion strategy to overhaul what it called 'restrictive' special schools after legal threats from leaders

Apparently he didn’t see who stole the yoghurt pot…🤦🏼‍♀️

Really crucial and important point to note: ‘Labelling children’ and formal diagnosis are not the same thing. #SEND

What a term! Have a lovely Easter, #EduSky ❤️

A while ago a lovely German man appeared at our church. He came a few times to look around during our Saturday opening hours, before asking if the piano abandoned in the corner worked. I told him it was horrendously out of tune, and the cathedral piano tuner had deemed it not worth sorting out.

ICYMI: @edaptuk.bsky.social has warned of increased redundancies already hitting the school sector, with more on the horizon as the school funding storm brews

#MothersDay2025 ❤️

Moving house. Will regret all labelling at a later date.

It looks like council Dedicated Schools Grant deficits for this year (2024-25) are coming in much worse than the Department for Education expected DfE's estimate for in-year deficit (per October 2024 NAO report) - £1.1bn Likely in-year deficit (Q3 LA out-turn forecasts) - £1.8bn

60yrs today since the release of ‘Bringing it all back home’ An absolute masterpiece. #BobDylan ❤️

My friend is stuck in LAX because the computer glitch says he’s already in England, even though he’s standing in front of them at the check in desk…it’s awful, but also….
