My son has had a few false starts with post 18 education but today I am super proud as he received his result of a 2:1 BA with Hons in Applied Special Educational Needs and Disability. He is fantastic at working with children with SEN and will always go above and beyond for them!

Too often young people get a bad press. However, up and down the country before and after school sports clubs are full of them showing dedication, resilience and a will to win. Whatever the sport keep it up!!!

Not all school staff are teachers. Let’s not forget the TA’s, the admin team, the caterers, the site staff, the cleaners and the technicians. They all make a school a school and all make a teachers job easier.

Yesterday one of our looked after children was not having the best day. I took him for a chat. He was scared of dogs. In 5 minutes Flynn had broken down many barriers, he will never know how important his work is. He made that boys day!
