Parent WhatsApp groups lighting up with ideas for presents for teachers. I don't expect anything. If you're really grateful to a teacher write a card saying why. Spend a bit of time on it. I remember barely any presents. I think I still have every card I've ever been given.

What an honour it was to be sworn in as MP to represent the great people of Corby & East Northants at Westminster today.
I’m still in the process of opening an office and recruiting staff. Hopefully this will be done shortly. So in the meantime please bear with me.

Harriet Harman is the best PM we never had. A genuine political heavyweight. Watching her on a panel alongside Dorries and Kwarteng is like watching a nuclear physicist interact with two vaguely confused dogs.

Yes! @ThePiXLNetwork have opened up their Parent-School Relationship guide to non-members.
It’s a downloadable, short, *practical* guide to dealing with parents (including complaints).
Best thing I’ve read on this topic all year. To get it…

Well done Ashley. We are all so proud of you. 👏 👏
Congratulations to ex student Ashley! He smashed the Corby Half-Marathon in just 1 hour 46 minutes last weekend! He only managed to train twice before the race and came 38th out of 103 people. Well done Ashley! 🥇

We are delighted to share our student's achievements. Earlier this week, Lacey in Year 9 travelled to Wembley to assist in volunteering for Adoption UK at the Voice in a Million concert. She spent the day helping to set up at the event and then the evening in raising money.

We are extremely proud of the efforts and commitment to the community that our Year 12 student, Lucy has achieved. She co-ordinated the operation of Foodbank collection points within the Academy over a period of six weeks and arranged to deliver the donations last month.
