Ex Head of Bryn Hafren & Pencoedtre High Schools

Xmas 2017, some great staff and memories!

🚨 Pep Guardiola hits back at Jim Ratcliffe: "We treat immigrants or people that come from other countries like they are the ones causing problems for our country. It's a big problem because the fact I am Catalan and you are British? What influence did we have on where we were born? "Everyone wants to have a better life, everyone wants to have a better future for themselves and their families. Sometimes the opportunities are where you are born and sometimes it is in the place where you go. "The colour of your skin or the place where you were born don't make a difference. "Most people run away from their countries for the problems that are in their country, not because they want to leave. "The more we embrace other cultures, truly embrace it, then we will have a better society - I do not have any doubts about that."

Three quarters supporting progressive parties - well done teachers!

@croesyschool I taught Harri Maths in Y7 - a great pupil!

At the Wales v Argentina rugby match yesterday at the Principality Stadium, ex-pupil and Head Boy, Harri Seymour performed a flawless rendition of The Last Post. #remembrance #learningrespectambition

I don’t always agree with you but on this occasion I do! This is a fantastic clip that encapsulates the difference a good teacher makes.

A great quote Mike!

@mike_glavin Lovely words Mike.

Dad had the send off he would have wanted. Don’t be sad. He loved life. Just hold close those you love. Don’t assume they will be here forever. Treasure every moment. I will be back to all things school on Monday.

An thoroughly interesting and thought provoking read from a former Bryn Hafren pupil ⁦@mck_beth⁩ ‘I worried I might start finding it normal. But I never did’ – what I learned as the Guardian’s Jerusalem correspondent theguardian.com/world/2025/may…

Please could any 2 of my X Followers just copy and repost? This time can be especially hard for people with depression. Samaritans UK Tel no. 116 123. Just two. Any two. Say done.
