Good Governance at work ! Brilliant Claire #UKEdGovs
Great meeting with the SENCo today in my role as SEND governor. I am always inspired by the passion and relentless hard work that they put into the role each day. I have been in their shoes and know the challenges well, frank conversations and the recognition of a job well done are so important

On cultivating belonging:
“We need to do the work, the inner work, to reflect, to learn & to grow, in order to be able to do the outer work where we show up, stand up & speak out.”
And @hannahwilson.bsky.social’s book can certainly support us as we do this. Thank you, Hannah.

Does any school do a desktop exercise where staff are presented with possible safeguarding scenarios and the key people you might go to (HT, DSL etc) are sat at separate desks to see how it might play out and what they might do if they were unavailable?
