00:00- Lots of teachers tweeting about turning their alarm clocks off. I haven’t had the luxury of using one since my daughter was born 7 years ago! If anyone knows how to turn her internal alarm clock off please share @maternityCPD
- While on mat leave I realised all the leadership books I’d been reading were written by white men so I took action to diversify my bookshelf. Here are a few books written by some fabulous women. @maternityCPD #MTPTproject #BlackHistoryMonth
- First day in a new school/new role can be exhausting but this note from my daughter is just the energy boost I need. @mtptproject

- Introducing . . . my competition!! 3 interviews in the last year, 3 times down to the final two with this megastar. The universe keeps pulling us together. #NPQH Day1
- I was 10% braver this week and it paid off. Looking forward to the new school year. Thank you for the inspiration @Ethical_Leader @WomenEd
