Year 13 Politics students were surprised with a signed copy of Alastair Campbell's book today (thank you @campbellclaret !) We know they'll change the world one day (but are focusing on passing A-Level Politics first!)

Word of the day is ‘recrudescence’ (17th century): the return of something terrible after a time of reprieve.

@mrwbw So scrummy!

Go Humanities!

A big week for little M: he had his nursery induction and cut 3 teeth (all in one night). All done with a smile on his face ☺️ This makes me feel SO much better about returning to work on Monday.

@YorkClio I'm so sorry to read this. What an amazing woman who influenced so many across the community.

For those who knew and loved my inspirational friend and colleague, Helen Snelson, it is my sad job to tell you that she died yesterday afternoon. I know how much she meant to so many of you and she was so grateful for your support and love these last few months.

I'm glad that this article has been written. It echoes everything I've been feeling in the lead up to my return with a 7 month old. It's hard when my friends have 6 months full pay and a year off. BBC News - Teacher mums quitting fuels staff shortages bbc.com/news/articles/…

I would absolutely recommend listening to this. She's amazing!

Hi @MilHums 🙋‍♀️

I'm just digesting the new Cabinet that @Keir_Starmer has put together. It is packed full of competent people with actual expertise. There's not a 'Nadine Dorries' or 'Gavin Williamson' in sight!

@SPBeale It is a breath of fresh air!

Starmer is absolutely killing it with his cabinet appointments.

@CitoyenneClaire Same.

The results in East Anglia are proper parallel-universe stuff. Extraordinary.

Regretting moving a few miles up the road to West Suffolk.

Happy polling day! #VoteTheToriesOut #babiesatpollingstations

@GWSHAW1 I'm just here to say congratulations on the baby! 😊

I need to buy a windows laptop for work (I have a Chromebook and it's no good with Microsoft Office). My current place only has desktops and with a newborn, I can't stay at work late anymore. Any recommendations on how to save a bit of money?

Monty's ready for the start of the TdF! #TDF2024

@richkbristol We bought a KOM vest before he arrived. Now he's 5 months, and it's clear he's not a climber... we should have bought the sprinters jersey instead!

I'm so excited to read this book. What an achievement! Thank you, Emily, for giving me the opportunity to contribute in a small way to it.

@MissFolorunsho I'm so sorry for your loss ❤️

Tomorrow marks a day of deeply mixed emotions for me. It's the publication day of my new book, a project I’ve poured my heart and soul into. Yet, it also coincides with my dad’s funeral, a moment of profound loss. While I’m proud to share my work with the edu-community, my heart is heavy with grief. This juxtaposition of celebration and sorrow has left me feeling uncertain about how to navigate these conflicting emotions. To be honest, the grief outweighs the joy I should feel about the publication. In fact, I completely forgot publication was tomorrow until I received an email. I want to take a moment to thank everyone who has supported me through both this professional journey and this personal loss. Your encouragement means more than I can express.
