Today our Upper School boys were treated to a very special visit from the poet Adisa the Verbalizer. Ted in #Year3 shared his 'Panda' poem in assembly to the whole school and then later got the chance to share it with Adisa during the workshop too! #poetryinaction @Adisapoet ā©

I end this piece with a list of 60 black British women novelists writing across genres, many of them debuts & the majority are not well-known. Look them up and see if they're for you, your reading group, your friends, different gens of your family. #Vogue

āIn 2020, I wrote a piece for this magazine where I noted the paucity of novels by Black British writers, but I think things have changed since then.ā

It is with great sadness that we announce the passing, following a brief illness, of Terry, our beautiful friend, brother and one of the most brilliant singers, songwriters and lyricists this country has ever produced. (1/4)
