Delighted to have been at the GA @gasigict.bsky.social 2026 Awards ceremony to see the incredible David Gardner receive Hononary Membership. I believe he is now part of a very small select group. Congratulations from all of us at @hachettelearning.bsky.social

Latest data shows that overall recruitment of secondary ITT has improved, but RE is facing a worsening recruitment since bursaries were removed. But help is available 👇🏼 natre.org.uk/news/bursary-cut-leads-trainee-teachers-of-re-to-fall-by-a-fifth-so-far-this-year-but-help-is-available/

Here’s a poem called ‘For Your Own Safety and Protection’.

For Your Own Safety and Protection

In response to the recent flooding
of the poetry trade with cheap, inferior verse,
heavy tariffs have been imposed
on this poem.

As a result, it is unlikely
this poem will be read by anyone
outside my domestic market –
or as I like to call her, my cat.

Such news will come as a relief
to the thousands of people
who have already found my poetry
to be taxing enough,

and lends further credence
to those literary critics
who consider my work to be
of little import.

Word of the morning is ‘williwaw’ (19th century): a sudden violent squall or a toppling gust of wind. Goes well with ‘thunderplump’: a sudden downpour that soaks you to the skin in seconds.

Today’s poem is called ‘The Good Old Days’.

The Good Old Days

Pity the poor children
of today, with their calendars
stuffed with chocolates,

never to know the thrill
of opening a small cardboard door
and discovering behind it

a picture of a bell.
