Thanks Maxine - I intend to enjoy every slow morning and I love the idea of books with no purpose!! Enjoy your summer too.

I’m not sure how to DM in BlueSky!

I'd love to upskill in my EY work in relation to mark making and also help my little nephew with his along the way!

@pippatep.bsky.social no I don’t but I’m trying to make contact. There are no contact details on their website

Does anyone have contact details for Somerset Educational Psychology Service? #edpsychs

@pippacrerar.bsky.social Great news on extension of GM tram network- such a disappointment that the picture is either photoshopped or out of date - our trams are Bee Network yellow - anyone in GM would know this

And then the gvt never succeeded in getting health and social care round the table and crucially to commit budget to the concept of a multi agency EHC Plan so it has never been more than a LA/ educational plan

Parents groups were heavily involved and able to advocate at the highest level for parent and child voice at a time when, due to the austerity cuts and the gvt philosophy at the time, LA voices were heavily disenfranchised- it was very difficult to get a hearing for the ‘this won’t work’ argument

I was involved as PEP in a LA at the time and remember the processes well- the concept of high incidence needs as compared with low incidence was supposed to be cost saving - schools took responsibility for high incidence need with LA budgets focused on low incidence

The thinking behind the 2014 changes came from this paper which heavily influenced how LAs at the time planned for the introduction of the EHCP changes: policyexchange.org.uk/wp-content/u...

Storyville Books Bookshop UK Nestled in the rolling hills of the South Wales valleys, we are the only independent bookshop in Pontypridd, selling new books and more.

⚠️ Pontypridd has been hit by devastating floods and our wonderful independent bookshop, Storyville Books, has seen much of its stock destroyed.

If you’re able to buy a book from them, this would go such a long way to help support them rebuild in the aftermath.
