🎄 Final Christmas Message for Education's Heroes To every educator heading into the holidays: You've been someone's everyday hero this year. Someone's turning point. Someone's reason to believe. Rest well - you've earned it.

A huge thank you to @SJCES and to all your incredible year 9 pupils who helped put together 60 busting Christmas gift bags full of lovely and thoughtful presents for our care leavers! We’re all very grateful and appreciative of the support #boltonfamily

Thank you to the team for their dedication and input into our development day! Each term we come together reflect on our service, what can we do to keep driving improvement forward and supporting our children - finishing off with a festive activity and painting candles.

Big thank you to @UniOfYork for the huge warm welcome and the guided tour! Our year 11s had a brilliant day and some are planning a VIP tour and coming back once they’re studying their A Levels! #year11 #unitrip

A visit to York Minster’s annual light show is becoming a firm favourite of ours. Seeing young people memorised and their jaws drop when they see the minster and watch the show makes it’s all worth it ❤️❤️ I’m proud of our year 11s, they’re an incredible bunch!

A fantastic day at St. John York University! Now time for chocolate making before an evening trip to the minister ❤️❤️ #year11 #universitytrip

Today is not a goodbye, it’s an excited good luck and a team bursting with well wishes!! Good luck @CatherineHobday on your next steps, we’re so incredibly proud of you! You’ll be the most amazing Virtual School Head in Bury! ❤️❤️

AS: Earlier this year, #ADCS24 published a paper called Childhood Matters, it is an urgent call to arms to put children and families at the heart of all national policy decisions... I shared these statistics back in April and I’m doing so again as quite frankly, they are shameful

I’m so proud to see Sue Johnson, VSH in Salford and Chair of @NAVSH_UK in the crowd representing Virtual Schools and promoting the education of children with a social worker! ❤️❤️

We’re thrilled to announce our VSH, Lindsay will be next year’s Regional Chair for the North-West Virtual School Network! We’re looking forward to working alongside @NAVSH_UK and building upon the regional partnership

To see a fellow woman from a council estate take up space as Deputy PM makes me so genuinely proud @AngelaRayner A more representative Government & legal system is happening slowly but surely…I can feel it. What a time to be alive ❤️

Thank you to Mr Convey @LadybridgeHigh for the guided tour our young person said, ‘he really gets foster kids and I know he’ll understand what I’ve been through’ We know staff are fantastic and have the child in the centre but it means even more when our children see it to!
