Always great working with @ThePiXLNetwork. Really enjoyed presenting at the conference today alongside Tom Thacker from @ThisIsCentury talking all things AI and how it can be used to support staff in education.
AI is advancing rapidly and becoming a valuable tool in schools for both staff and students. AI expert Tom Thacker from @ThisIsCENTURY at #PiXLNationalConference unpacks key considerations and best practices for using AI effectively for #Secondary schools 🙌

What a week! Year 11 started their PPE exams and I couldn't be prouder of them, so pleased to be working with them this year. Had a great SLT discussing our approach to PP and finished the week off discussing the launch of the reading programme I showcased at @ThePiXLNetwork

Really enjoyed the conference today with the team @ThePiXLNetwork. So much to take away and think about to support the young learners we have at our academy. Not sure about the photo however! 😅
Great day, as usual with @ThePiXLNetwork Really fortunate to be there with @MrDBruce (of PiXL holding screen fame!) and being able to share our gains on the train with the RSLs.
