When engaging in my other pursuits, '[I' m] not part of the body of a school, not truly under its skin'.

This blog helps me to remember that. Thank you @clairestoneman.bsky.social.
One of my favour bloggers, and this is a cracking one @clairestoneman.bsky.social.
As someone who has attempted to be a voice at the table: spoken at conferences, written a book, whilst working in a school full time, it's hard. And frankly, I can't do it all, anymore. My voice is quieter.
Be like @laurenteacheng.bsky.social.
