I rather regret calling the trousers worn by members of the First and Second Estate in 18th century France 'fancy pants'- because all 130 y8 students I teach have seized on this with glee and written about it in their essays!

Every time I see one of these, I think ‘that’s the best one yet!’. And then another comes along and I have to start again.

A Hungarian equivalent to “a bad workman blames his tools” is ha egy kacsa nem tud úszni nem a víz a hülye. It means “if the duck can't swim, it's not the water that's stupid”

@lbc.co.uk what is the problem with taking our PPA time at home? We already do a load of work at home anyway, so what’s the issue with having our timetabled planning time at home?

I think my friend and I finally mastered refreshments at the British Library for #histfest on Saturday-pack some butties and take a flask. I have never felt such fury as the hours long queue for a coffee as that at the BL coffee stall in the lobby!

It’s been a really good couple of days for little Mango 🥭
We knew his eyes and his little baby bow tie would win someone over.
You have to love a good happy story like this… (1/5) 🧵
