Another set of #scratch blocks fresh from the printer. I quite like the purple! Again, I'm happy to post the stl files once I've made a few alterations. I really like how this has worked out!

Don’t know how many times I have to explain that I am Computer Science teacher. NOT THE IT TECHNICIANS. So I don’t know how to recover your files that you deleted from a week ago... I also don’t know why your iPhone turned off by itself and what is the password of YOUR wifi.....

M6 Teachers pay 2023 Scotland: £48516 England: £39974

It simply beggars belief that Sunak has spent the last few days saying he's doing the unpopular thing on public sector pay because he needs to curb government spending when he's also doing this which won't work and is just for headlines. Billions for headlines.

Every January, there is a New Year treat. A friendly 1 day computing education practice conference takes place in Durham, England cepconference.webspace.durham.ac.uk. CEP has mainly been an HE conference, but we want to extend this to K–12 teachers to share their practice too! Pls share!
