Received some excellent news to coincide with #NationalApprenticeshipWeek! I’ve been completing a Level 7 apprenticeship with @QA_Ltd and have passed my EPA! If you get a chance to complete an apprenticeship, I highly recommend it, hard work but rewarding!

Christmas games are not normally my strong point and I’ll happily volunteer for the washing up instead… apparently the instructions/game being in German brought me some luck for a rare win! 🎄🥳

Leading a team over 42 schools isn’t easy. Getting to see people can be a challenge but today, with support from @eduthingltd we’ve been able to bring the team together for some professional development, action planning and most importantly getting to catch up with each other!
