This perceptive, I think. As an extrovert myself I know I have tended to favour those who ‘join in’ - an introvert daughter of my own has helped me rethink.#DeanCloseFlourishing

Looking back from the vantage of adulthood, I can see that my biggest problem with school was that it privileged extroversion over introversion. A lot of the time I just wanted space to think and read, not be thrust into group 'activities' all the time. theatlantic.com/family/archi…

This makes me really proud - senior pupils offering true leadership, which involves both courage and vulnerability. #DeanCloseCourage #DeanCloseLove
