When he was in year 8 I used to have to chase this lad around school. So glad I don’t have to tackle him now. Good win yesterday.

TOUGH WEEK. Cold and Flu everywhere, great trip for 40 kids to London. Staff to cover, a few kids playing up a bit. Vast majority doing the right thing every day.

@willenhalle-act.bsky.social

Progress! Small steps but important ones.

I've been a trustee at the Holocaust Educational Trust for a while now so I see all the stats and it's so dispiriting.

I think we do a good job fighting back through education but it sometimes feels like trying to hold back the tide with a leaky bucket.

Busy morning at @willenhalle-act.bsky.social but great to see 40 students off to London for culture, theatre, sites and a bit of politics too.
