So many reasons not to use these fake cobwebs - please think carefully if you're planning to decorate for Halloween. Real cobwebs look so much more beautiful
Fake cobwebs like these may look spooky – but what's really scary about them is that they can trap & injure wildlife, including birds, insects & small mammals. And fake webs aren't recyclable – so will end up in landfill for many years.

Yesterday, I taught a BSL lesson entirely in BSL without any voiceover from me or the interpreter. My mentor teacher said that she’s never seen the class stay so silent for 30 minutes! They were so focused and engrossed with #BSL #uoepgdep #languages

In technologies today, we were given the language Arabic and as a group we decided to explore how spring is celebrated differently. In Dubai, there is a spring festival which correlates with Chinese new year and celebrates rebirth and regrowth. #uoePGDEp
