Here's @hywelroberts.bsky.social & @davewhitaker.bsky.social heading into yesterday's fantastic event #TheNextDecade, with 1100+ ppl turning talking about building relational cultures schools. It turns out kindness & storytelling have great power -- as the 2 of them have been saying for some time!

This is where I am today, with a lot of others! Many of whom think that methods for getting the best outcomes for kids isn’t by putting them in boxes & making them conform, but by building trust and treating them as individuals.

An overwhelming turnout in Leeds today for @thenextdecadeuk.bsky.social conference and wonderful to bump into colleagues from all over the country. @suzannezeedyk.bsky.social @edfinch.bsky.social @positiveregard.bsky.social
