Grief is not a purely negative emotion. Over time, it becomes bittersweet—sadness is joined by love and gratitude. Nostalgia is a healthy response to loss. Longing for the past motivates us to appreciate the present and improve the future. The goal of coping is not to erase pain. It's to gain purpose.

At the hairdressers yesterday and there was a discussion about A levels. I then hear 'Ah PE must have been the easier one then to get a good grade'....PE at A level is not easy, nor is it at GCSE...this assumption is so frustrating

Child free morning means a coffee and Foucault reading. #EdD #foucault

Pushed myself out of my comfort zone today and presented some of my research at the EdD Conference at University of Portsmouth today. What an awesome day collaborating with others and hearing about their research. #EdD

Sometimes when you're trying to do your EdD work - this is what it looks like.

Told my year 6 form group about floppy disks in aid of science week and the evolvement of technology...well you can imagine the looks. Yep, I am officially old.

When you have a netball game at the same university you're doing your doctorate in. You get up earlier on a Sunday morning and get some work done in the library before it!

Back to it today, learning spss as a tool for quantitative data. This is confirming to me that I don't like numbers 🤯. Give me all the words.

Another weekend on the EdD programme...starting to delve and think about my future research project 🤯

Reflective essay writing is making me reflect on my life choices right now...#educationaldoctorate

Stupidly I’ve been reading the comments on the strike action. So many people really hate teachers don’t they?
