My article on leadership and school librarians is out now in @InfoProMag. All school libraries need an experienced, professional librarian at their helm. We should be looking to our international colleagues for inspiration! @intlNadine @IFLA @GreatSchLibs @richardgerver

Excellent article by Committee Member Mary Rose Grieve on the tightrope school librarians walk in their leadership role. May we all be ‘gentle agitators’!

Thanks to @EmiratesLitFest, we have @MeggittPhillips coming to @HartlandIntl next term. This is me in the final assembly of term revealing the news to the school. The excitement levels are intense. Not to mention my humiliation.


There isn’t much I’d stay up past midnight for, but Newsletter Live with the sensational @lauramucha is one. Great to talk about our #Dubai TRG @OpenUni_RfP. Thank you all so much for championing poetry. @TeresaCremin @debbiet99313391 and @kashleyenglish @charliehacking

Always great to join @OpenUni_RfP Newsletter Live! What a great line up. #readingforpleasure

I've never really understood why other subjects should dictate what the next class book is. Books should be selected because they'll make the children gasp, laugh, cry, think and empathise, not because there's some heavily contrived link to Squirrels & Submarines. #Edutwitter

After a bit of a hiatus on X, I return with an autumnal-looking front cover of a brilliant book, finished today after our @CILIPSLG committee meeting. It was such a good read-perfect as the nights draw in-a rich mix of history, suspense magical fantasy and lots to think about🌰🍂

If you teach children to write by copying they will come to believe that they can only write if there is a model to copy.

A question I am regularly asked about reading lessons is this: How can we write learning objectives for lessons without a clear focus on a specific 'comprehension skill'? My answer? Don't bother. >>


Last night ⁦@nikkigamble⁩ spoke to ⁦@macbarnett⁩ in what must be one of the best conversations about books I’ve ever listened to. Today, I have subscribed to the substack of ⁦@macbarnett⁩ and ⁦@burstofbeaden⁩ and my life is complete open.substack.com/pub/lookingatp…

So excited to be with the amazing team at @ELFDubai to hear about their schools programme for 2025 and from @WCShearer who gave us some brilliant writing tips for our student writers. This year’s @EmiratesLitFest is going to be fantastic. 📚📚📚
