A fantastic @1972shp.bsky.social conference this weekend. It provides space for thinking, reflection and agreeable disagreement, all with a community feel. Thanks to @danlyndon.bsky.social, the wider team and workshop leaders/keynotes. I’m including a picture of egalitarian cheese. IYKYK. #SHP26

A lovely few days for (3/4s of)Team History from @endsexisminschools.bsky.social sharing our research, promoting women in the curriculum, soaking up all the history, and arguably the highlight of it all… absolutely smashing the bridge building contest in the HA Quiz! #HAConf26

Great time at @histassoc.bsky.social #HAConf26 presenting, not once but twice, with my partner in all things history-specific #ITT and #TeacherMentoring @lauralondo1017.bsky.social, catching up with colleagues from around the country, and benefiting from the deep thinking of others. Tired now.

Word of the day, should you be feeling a little huffish, is ‘apanthropy’ (18th century): a love of solitude and the desire to be away from other people.

1. Thread. Ed tech and the best lesson I taught this year. The best Ed tech in the world for my subject is a book. It is the ideal delivery method because the effort of concentrating on it helps people learn what's in it.
