I was lucky enough to have an incredible research visit to Australia as part of my NIHR fellowship. The INSCHOOL project was well received and I enjoyed being based at the BSU at UNSW. Thank you to all who helped make this a fantastic trip. @jefardell @ANZCHOG @NIHRcommunity

Our new @CfYoungLives x @ChildoftheNort1 report is out today on tackling the Special Educational Needs and Disability assessment & support crisis! @theipaper have released an exclusive here ⬇️

A delight to have @DrSimonPini from @UniversityLeeds guest lecture at our Randwick research seminar today! Some fab examples of participatory research (incl. participatory analysis!) here within the INSCHOOL project 👏🏻 Thanks for coming all the way down to Sydney🇦🇺 to visit us!

The government will have to successfully square this aspiration with its manifesto commitment to build on knowledge rich syllabuses. Getting this wrong is the route to the policy failure seen elsewhere.

Today we celebrated and sadly said farewell to our fantastic Research & Implementation Fellow Team (RIFT). They presented posters on core projects. Wishing them all the best in their return to @UniversityLeeds for a final year of study. They have bright futures ahead of them!

It was great to attend my first Festival of Education with my amazing colleague @CathCathkitchen. Our INSCHOOL workshop was very well received by school leaders and personnel and there is great enthusiasm for improving the school lives of young people with health conditions.

Thank you for a fabulous session @CathCathkitchen about supporting children in schools with medical needs @DrSimonPini

#GeneralElection Day is here. We hope the next govt that's voted in will prioritise CYP in its work & focus on improving every aspect of childhood. We support a 'Children First Govt' programme & the @CfYoungLives 10-point plan for the next Govt to boost children’s life chances.
