Focusing on restorative conversations this week with staff and pupils. Working on how we can have meaningful communications that result in behaviour change. #restorativepractice #reward

Reflecting on blue cards etc- until the aggressive and intimidating behaviour of players towards refs stops in the PL it will never stop at grassroots. My boys copy everything these footballers do. For once it needs to start at the top and filter down the leagues. #bluecard

Half term at last!!!! Lots to think about though for next half… anti-vaping work, anti-racism projects and a new behaviour system to trial!

Sometimes feel my life is completely governed by the decision of whether to eat, nap or run.

Very excited about launching our new Diversity Council and Club next term. Some excellent pupil leadership and planning in action! #celebration #culture #difference #inclusion #diversity

One World Day Uppingham School today. So much going on from sushi making to Bollywood dancing, Greek culture to poetry! #oneworld

A fabulous group of young people working to make real change in our community

Interesting performance of #romeoandjuliet with Tom Holland - very stripped back and exposed… yet utterly compelling #shakespeare #halftermculture

Still feeling angry about the new netball super league changes. Leaving out huge areas of the country and potentially losing thousands of young future netballers #netballsuperleague

Always enjoy interviewing for future prefects and school captains… 120+ applications this year and each one with their own unique ideas for leadership and change… bring on week 2!

Enjoyed presenting for the BSA Boarding diploma in boarding practice -leadership for the first time today. Great to help shape the next generation of leaders! #training #leadership #boardingschool

Going back to the beginning today and starting to plan and workshop our anti-racism strategy. Goal setting, prioritising and building a strong team. Being largely led by pupil voice is bold and exciting! #antiracism

No matter where in the world Premier Inn never put enough towels in the rooms

Qatar has changed a bit in the last 14 years #Qatar #halfterm

When a dirty second hand shirt wins Christmas for your boys Ben Davies #tottenham MatchWornShirt #coys

I love the irony of this in amongst so much amazing architecture and art… #cambridge #tourists #cambridgeuniversity

Not been on X much over the last year or so (only to moan about onions on a Big Mac) but felt I had some time to try to reengage today… possibly a big mistake! It feels like everyone is arguing and I’m not sure what’s going on…

Had a great day today… John Lewis & Partners lady managed to get an extra few quality streets into my pick and mix tin… the little things mean a lot!
