"One of the criticisms I've faced over the years is that I'm not aggressive enough or assertive enough, or maybe somehow, because I'm empathetic, I'm weak. I totally rebel against that. I refuse to believe that you cannot be both compassionate and strong." - Jacinda Ardern pic.x.com/BX7MMWZgCK

JET is privileged to work with so many brilliant members of the Armed Forces community. They inspire our students to think differently and reimagine their potential. Thank you #ArmedForcesDay2020

Brilliant selection today!

Accurate 😂

faireducation.org.uk/news. A-level students have been penalised by the system through no fault of their own. This will have a devastating impact on the future of thousands already facing hardships. JonEggingTrust we back this call for change.

Just to say thank you for the session last night - it may not have been the way you wanted, but it was a good opportunity to listen and ask questions. Now to the choices... Well done to Luke, Grace and Irruz - a credit to the school

Wise words.

If you are a former student of Sheldon School, we want to hear from you! Your experiences could help to motivate and inspire our current students. Our alumni network is already growing. Please contact us at [email protected] for more details.

Decisions on how best to maintain education for all pupils are very very difficult in many places at present. Geoff Barton ASCL is absolutely right on this: leaders (with the oversight of their governing boards) need to be trusted by the DfE & allowed some flexibility

Dear school leaders, In 11 years as chief exec of @ngamedia I haven't tried to speak for every governing board of England's state schools at once but now is the time: your governors & trustees are saying go home & have a break. You do not have to solve this public health crisis

Huge congratulations to another successful Sheldon alumnus!

To the angry young man in Bridgend who screamed at my 21-year-old daughter and called her a f***ing b***h because the pump she was filling her car up with ran out: panic may warp our sense of reason but this is why women are scared to be out alone. We must stop this now.
