Me too.

Old friends are important because everyone is different with different people. If you lose touch with someone, part of you disappears too.

Many congratulations Tim Coulson on your appointment as Director General for Regions Group. I am delighted that you have been appointed to this crucial position and we @cstvoice.bsky.social look forward to working with you in this role.

All about music today. Started today with beautiful chamber music at St Peter’s Church Highfields, and now listening to the extraordinary album, Altera Vita.

"How we turn our good education system into something great" - @leoracruddas.bsky.social @cstvoice.bsky.social outlines in @tesmagazine.bsky.social why Bridget Phillipson is "right to praise the past" – but also to "seek to create an even better future". https://buff.ly/3WKuk4S #education

Great thread from @steverollett.bsky.social

"the problems our children and families face are beyond the reach of individual organisations or public sector services" @leoracruddas.bsky.social sets out an ambitious agends for change that schools will very much welcome www.tes.com/magazine/ana...

Thank you Jon and Emma for your hugely sympathetic interviewing. This podcast captures what I hold most dear.

Love this blog from @ianfrost28.bsky.social. Important reflections on the power and importance of small schools, and how we can maximize their potential.

This is such a beautiful and important exposition of the protective power of #SchoolTrusts. It is crucial that we support our small schools to join strong and resilient trusts so that they can continue to flourish.

We are at the School and Academies Show today. @steverollett.bsky.social now introducing @cstvoice.bsky.social trust-led school improvement work.

Who am I not following that I should follow? Education, civic leadership, hope. That’s what I’m interested in, mostly. @leoracruddas.bsky.social @mrjlauder.bsky.social @raesnape.bsky.social

I loved listening to this which I think captures the spirit of the @cstvoice.bsky.social conference. Thank you @gatortiff.bsky.social

Last chance to submit your views on curriculum and assessment. We’ve already heard a wonderfully rich and diverse range of views from professionals, pupils, parents, employers and wider stakeholders. It’s a conversation that everyone’s invited to. 👇🏽 consult.education.gov.uk/curriculum-a...
