After a crazy-busy, mum-guilt ridden week, time to start this weekend right; quality time spent with the most important humans. First stop, tesco to spend this book token with the boy apparently!
Time for a bit of Action research...
Q- what are the persistent problems of middle leadership in Secondary settings?
Keen to hear from existing or historic middle leaders- particularly those that lead subject areas.

Bedtime story time in the Miah house and my 3yo (fierce little lady) chose this tonight suggesting from the front cover and title that Princess Pearl is the doctor and Gadabout the Great is her "helper". Why did this make me so proud?!! 💜

An epic collaboration which will undoubtedly level up PD in any setting. The most difficult thing for me has been gauging how IC is going for each set of coach/ coachees and the impact it is truly having. The tools here will absolutely provide better insight with this 🙌

So nice to hear
