Probably because it was my first Olympics, so personally as mind blowing as the moon landing a year later - defying gravity much harder on Earth!

Trebles all round. What a fantastic first season for Sonia

When we think of international students we tend to think of Universities, not further education. But at The Bedford College Group we had students of 133 nationalities in my last year. Here are the biggest groups & the end of the long tail

Wow! Fantastic, varied, concert from former Royal Harpist Alis Alis Huws Harpist at Gwŷl Biwmares/Beaumaris Festival. Thank you

What an excellent set of appointments. Really pleased to see Fiona Dr Fiona Aldridge Andy Westwood, Zoe Lewis & Fazal Dad as members of the Board

If these Institute for Fiscal Studies and Nuffield Trust projections are based only on demographics, FE growth likely to be even higher with increased progression rates once at college? Keeping students for 2 or 3 years post-16, rather than 1 year increases numbers in a way not open to schools

Fun watching this excellent film in unusually busy Pwllheli cinema. True tale of importance of teachers/education in fostering talent. Though tend to over-Billy-Elliotise success stories from tough communities rather than praise the more prosaic education system underpinning them

Really pleased to see this global recognition by Green Gown Awards for The Bedford College Group given its long history championing sustainability #GreenGownAwards

As a relatively new Knowledge Schools Trust director can’t take any credit, though can take great pride, in this exceptional report. A school judged inadequate only a few years ago. Same staff, new leadership. Brilliant for #Bedfordshire & #LeightonBuzzard. Great work
