Hello and happy half term
You made it… It’s half term, and while there’s no resource drop this week, I wanted to send a big, heartfelt thank you for everything you do for our children and young people. I hope you’re managing to steal a moment or two just for you—because you absolutely deserve it.
I’ve been taking some time out too (I’m just about to head off on an epic off-road tandem adventure that will test me to my limits over the next ten hours… just how I like it!). And in between muddy miles and snack stops, I’ve been working on something new:
Ten Steps to a Neurodivergent-Friendly Classroom—a short, practical course to help you build more inclusive, affirming spaces without burning out in the process.
It's not quite ready yet—watch this space—but you’ll be the first to know when it is. I really hope you’re going to love it… I've watched more footage of myself than any one person should, and editing out my bloopers is becoming a full-time job.
If there are topics you’d love to see me cover in future courses, hit reply and let me know—I’d love to create something that’s genuinely helpful to you.
Wishing you a happy, muddy, restful, joyful half term (delete as applicable).
Love,
