Thanks to @UniOfSurrey for hosting the annual @PolicyUpen conference. How do we evaluate policy impact? Lots of interesting ideas shared by #academics, #knowledge #mobilisers and #policymakers. And despite the travel chaos (tree on the line?!), I later made it to #Brussels!

Very sensible @lucy_crehan recommendations here re: adding *languages* to the Northern Ireland curriculum. I look forward to the day when young people in Northern Ireland *all* have the opportunity to learn ancient and/or modern languages in primary and post-primary schools.
In this report, I set out the case for a new curriculum framework for Northern Ireland, that is:.- purpose-led.- knowledge-rich.- continuous and coherent.- specific and focused.- inclusive and flexible.
