New Year Resolutions
Reading ‘Mungo Makes New Friends’ to my 4 year old, she said at the end,
“Poor Fox. He was just wanting to make friends!”
And that took a totally new perspective on the story.

Who Should Be Teaching The Teachers? by Ali Harwood
This is for parents, teachers and those interested in education and how it works. I read an interesting article in the TES recently – ‘Spare us from the hypocrites who preach about how to teach’ https://www.tes.com/news/school-news/breaking-views/spare-us-hypocrites-who-preach-about-how-teach - about the idea and reality of universities running our schools.
