Very proud to have been recognised again by the wonderful @EduFuturists . Thanks guys, and we'll done to all other nominees. Keep up the good work!

On Monday 23rd March I'll be presenting a session on Classroom displays: Standards, Specs, Straight Answers with the good people at Elementary Technology. Sign up below if you are involved in buying, supporting or using IT in schools. vimeo.com/event/5743194/…

Looking forward to hearing how other schools and MATs are using the AI features in @ArborEdu at this year's #ArborFest

@AmazingAccy @ASFCofficial @officalassc1 We should incorporate this into it.

Have you had your say on the @asfcofficial mural? 👀 Submit your ideas today ⬇️ amazingaccrington.co.uk/accrington-sta… @officalassc1

@AmazingAccy @ASFCofficial @officalassc1 Plenty of green space to fill in around this image with football related stuff, but let's make sure that we include Doris. We wouldn't want to upset the neighbours...

@ASFCofficial Let's blast out The Birdy Song on match days just before closing. Give them what they asked for.

@Wozzer1969 Just wanted to say thanks for making the change @Wozzer1969 . Today was immeasurably better, and much more enjoyable as a result. Just a shame that the lads couldn't grab a goal, but that'll come. Really appreciate your response to my request, as do those around me in C block.

@itbadger Hi Dave, door will be open Saturday 👍

Well it looks like a Guiness for the Clayton End this weekend!! We will trial a while with cans and if all goes well we can get the draft in. ❤️🤍

@Wozzer1969 Any chance of a sign to let people know, as habits have been formed already. Cheeky bugger, I know, always asking for more!

@Wozzer1969 Fantastic, many thanks Warren, looking forward to seeing us score either side of half time! 🔴⚪

@Wozzer1969 Much appreciated Warren, thanks again.

@itbadger Leave it with me Dave, I honestly can't believe that it's a fire door that needs to be locked. As long as it is signed properly as a route of exit it surely can be open. I'll investigate tomorrow and msg you. I fully understand your frustration.

@Wozzer1969 Completely understand that you are tied to fire strategy, but I'd invite you to join us either side of half time to experience the disruption. Thanks for taking the time to reply and investigate.

@Wozzer1969 Thanks Warren. We've been told that it has to stay closed as it's a fire door, but surely having a member of door staff stood next to it is sufficient to ensure it is open if people need to get out, and closed if any fire needs to be compartmentalised.

@missionencode @WatergroveTrust @HarryJWake @learningdust I really enjoyed talking to Harry for this podcast. It was great to repay the favour from when he appeared on @learningdust and to see him developing into a force to be reckoned with. Check out the episode and let us know what you think.

Episode 11 of the Inside Tech Careers podcast has just been released! Harry speaks to Dave Leonard, the Strategic Director of IT at the @WatergroveTrust. 🎧 Hear Dave discuss the challenges and rewards of managing IT in an expanding trust: missionencodeable.com/podcast/dave-l…

@mreddtech @ElementaryAV @MissCMayers @Headteacherchat By 'veteran', you mean 'old', of course. So yes, that's fair. 😉
