I’ve just picked this up from Gareth, who has always been a delight to work with. Thank you so much for your encouragement and I look forward to seeing you at Silverstone soon. I knew there was a poet somewhere inside that ICT guru! I dare you to perform it;-) His blog remains a must-read!

Terry asks whether a passionate poet like Taylor Mali performing ‘What Teachers Make’ can … make a difference, to anyone or anything? I’m inclined to think not, especially for a UK audience, where we tend to understate everything. That’s just the point. Here in the UK we understate everything including the excellence in our classrooms and schools. That is not something of which we should be proud or a status quo that we should want to maintain. A bloody window into a bit more grassroots passion might just be the transformative antidote to the insipid reputation...
