And here's the first primary workshop from Charlotte Sellers giving some top tips for improving history in the primary classroom. Great to see @petejackson.bsky.social there to support, as they have both worked together for the last few years.

This article should be read by every teacher of history. A powerful analysis of the why and the how of teaching about the Holocaust in an age of misinformation and conspiracy theory. Brilliant writing from @andypearce.bsky.social

I went to see #kaetempest at Brixton Academy last night and it was one of the most uplifting, beautiful gigs I've ever been to. There was so much love in the room, so much resistance. The final act of the show was an absolute masterpiece, a spoken word montage of lyrics that blew me away ❤️ ❤️ ❤️
