What better way to end an exceptional week in Enhance than by heading to Anfield for the @EmiratesFACup tomorrow. The ‘89 cup final is the first match I watched all the way through. I was gripped. Not lost its magic for me. Instilling it in Isaac now. #whoarethey?

‘If you see someone doing a good job it’s likely to have started with quality professional development… a poor job probably has its roots in an absence of professional development’ Wise words from @DrChrisWB @CofE_EduLead #NPQEL.

These results are incredible. It just shows that hard work pays off, especially when you love what you do. Congratulations to all of them. Such bright futures. ⭐️⭐️⭐️
Wow. What a day. 100% A*-C grades. Class of 2024 you absolutely smashed it & we couldn't be more #proud. You ALL worked so hard and it paid off. With grads going to top unis, Arts conservatoires & straight into prof jobs, these are the ones to watch! 🌟#CAPACollege #alevelresults

I’ve just paid £12.5% service charge and then been asked for a tip. I mean, I’ve not been out for a meal since early July and I know these things move fast, but I kinda thought they were the same thing. 🤷🏼‍♂️

Thank you for your time, Graeme. I have shared some of the topics we discussed with a few colleagues this afternoon as I was feeling inspired. Very thought provoking. It also feels great to be part of a wider network. Thank you again.
A huge thank you to Mark Randall, CEO & Simon McCarthy, Director of Ed @enhance_trust for your time today. Loved the sparky, invigorating conversation & genuinely looking forward collaborating with you in the year to come as part of the @CofE_EduLead's #FlourishingTrustsNetwork

A heartfelt thank you to the staff @JCAWakefield who have spent time away from their loved ones to look after ours in London this week. Isaac has had an amazing time and made lifelong memories with his friends. These experiences are priceless. Thank you so much again. 🙂
