Dedication and then some

Now the dust has settled after Manchester's TSL Education North exhibition I'm reflecting back to the Saturday in particular when so many teachers, students and parents took it upon themselves, in their own time, to find new resources and ideas to make school that bit more engaging and exciting for pupils.

This level of dedication really should be recognised:  it's hard to imagine another profession filling such a massive exhibition hall on a Saturday simply out of the love for the job, and the desire to make a difference.  We had some lovely conversations with visitors to the Praise Pod stand about the importance of recognising achievements, and not only for pupils. . .
