Fantastic to see this report in print & to have contributed in a small way. I look forward to the changes it will bring (like more emphasis on spoken language in the NC, greater space for dialogue in classrooms, better teacher training on oracy) 1/2

I enjoyed writing this blog for Education@Sheffield — the illustration in the tweet is by the wonderful Angela Vives for JT Williams’ Bright Stars of Black British History and features Black poets Louise Bennett and Una Marson.

The Power of Picture Books 📚 Picture books ignite curiosity and build a love for reading! Through vibrant visuals, they help kids understand stories, learn new words, and enjoy reading together. A perfect start to lifelong reading! ❤️ #bookedug #childrenslibrary

Today, we are at Barnsley Libraries with Traditional Tales, Untraditionally Told - look at this fab polar bear from earlier in the week :) Maker{Futures}

The 4th Forum of Heritage Language Coalitions in Europe conference took place last week-end, with 260+ registrants speaking 40+ languages. What a fabulous organising committee to be a part of. Subscribe to the newsletter at hlenet.org

Love this - and while we are at it, can we make those libraries multilingual, please?

Ta very much for bringing the multilingual library to Stirling, Scotland! I enjoyed a shared reading of a colourful Korean book, a sweet Welsh-English book and discovering the Cree script!
