Today I turned 28 YEARS OLD. Which means 12 YEARS AGO I was on Educating Yorkshire. Over the years, teachers have helped me to push forward in all things I doubted myself I could achieve. Teachers gave me more than an education - they gave me a future. I will forever be grateful.

Happy new term to all those back this week! Re-sharing this in case anyone has a Y13 student returning after the summer who has decided to apply for a university course that needs an admissions test 😊
I've made a padlet for our students who are preparing for university admissions tests (MAT, TMUA, STEP, PAT, ESAT, AEA) with links to websites and resources. Feel free to share.
