@JonCobbold @UKYouth @M_Potter90 @TeachFirst Ah pal, its good to get the gang back together! Come join us..

@LCollingham @UKYouth @M_Potter90 @TeachFirst Ah that is so exciting! Two of my fave ex colleagues back together. What a dream team

Zooming down to London to start a new role as Interim Chief Programme Officer for @UKYouth. An exciting day! Brilliant @M_Potter90 will be holding the fort for while @TeachFirst in the North. Exciting times!

@StarraEducation We found playing with the new shoes and a teddy/doll really helps

Any tips for a toddler who has 2 pairs of fancy, shiny new shoes and absolutely will not put them on. She doesn’t take after her mother, that’s for sure!

@lottepywell Huge congratulations! What a gorgeous little tot 🥰 xx

The rest of my school year is going to be a bit different! In related news, I have a TEDX Newcastle ticket for Saturday which I can no longer use. Would anyone like to make use of it?

@FayeCraster @TeachFirst Happy mat leave! Enjoy your special family time xx

Maternity leave is here - woohoo! See you soon to all my colleagues and friends @TeachFirst and thank you for all the lovely well wishes!

@LNER I know, but my email says it is no longer stopping in York?

Perfect way to return back from mat leave - at the @SCHOOLSNE #SNEsummit22. I think this might be my 10th one over the years… do you get a prize for double figure attendance?

What an exceptionally beautiful thing this was. Thinking of the entire family at Balmoral 😔

An amazing day watching @Idharker officially become Chancellor @UniofNewcastle. ‘It is not about power, it is about empowerment’. She spoke of values, kindness and leading with heart. The first woman to become Chancellor here. I am a proud member of University Court today.

A pleasure to be invited to the @bccet celebration awards this evening. Such an inspirational group of colleagues. 600+ nominations trust wide. More events should be like this - simply saying well done and thank you for all people do. #teachertwitter #celebrate #inspiration
