I am so pleased to be back. I have been lucky enough to have a break over the last two weeks and have been travelling around Sri Lanka with my family.
Back now and I can’t wait to get stuck back into #whatisschool – reading the archives has just not done it for me.
This week we are looking at Student Centred Learning and whether it increases student engagement and learning. It is guaranteed to be a trending success!
