How can we teach students to be hopeful in today's troubled world? The world can feel like a hopeless place at the moment, but we owe it to our students to give them the same sense of optimism that we had when we were at school, says Mark Enser

#TeamRE although the focus here is Geography, so much applies to RE. I’m not sure if things really are worse or if being older makes it feel that way, but we certainly need to help kids to navigate what can seem like a desperate state of affairs www.tes.com/magazine/tea...

Pope Francis used his final public address to call for a ceasefire in Gaza: “Unarmed civilians are subjected to bombings and shootings. It is terrorism.”

Even in hospital, he checked in daily on Gaza’s Christian community.

The world has lost a brave voice for peace and justice.
