This is welcome news but why so far below what DfE staff are entitled too? What’s more, is this the main reason for women leaving the job after having children? The workload and lack of flexible working are surely bigger problems to address.

Came across this fab book for exploring sounds. Each page invites you to make sound effects for different scenarios. Would be a great addition to any classroom library! 📚
