Day 3 #ResearchAdvent I'm appreciative of my small FB community of practice. All researching English school governance. They're wise & supportive, 3 have now achieved their doctorates, more approaching the finish, some just starting out - If this is your PhD focus & you want to join us get in touch

What are we doing? #JohnHealey_mp (not that I think you are on here sadly) I never see any news about defense, it wasnt mentioned in the budget, and all the press are focused on is the ridiculous Rachel Reeves story? #Defense #NATO

He is so aggressive and shouty - I hate it. The behaviour of MPs needs to tone down, the level of debate is awful, everyone on their phones or shouting, attacking the person tather than the policy. The behaviour during the budget, as an example, was shocking.

So exciting!!

Independents whenever I can - never Starbucks

Oh well done Vaughn I still have a lot of writing to do - I am reminded of the quote "perfection is the enemy of progress". I just need to get on and stop fretting over perfection (whatever that is!)

Absolutely wonderful!

I really enjoy HT appraisal days (I hope they do too!) - such a privilege as a governor to celebrate successes and support the development of our key leader. Have a good day #UKEdGovs

What? Oh I beg to differ - our dinner last night consisted solely of a very hearty chicken, bacon, leek and bean soup (Oh and a mince pie for dessert). It was yum and definitely food! 😂

How awful for you all Simone, sending all good wishes

Probably but I wasn't sure how to do that so I made a list instead #UKEdGovs

I'm completely fed up hearing about it - so many bigger issues we should be focussed on.
