Well look at this! My first real life workshop/training session in nearly two years, working with @OldhamOA@twitter.com to improve the use of impact data. Looking forward to running a follow-up in January. But for now, I'm having a rest - I'd forgotten how tiring this stuff is!
I wrote a thing over the weekend 11 top tips for school governors and academy trustees on using data to support governance. Read it here - if I've missed anything, comments welcome..!
Hopefully of interest/use to @NGAMedia@twitter.com and others
This is like the opposite of clickbait. I actually did click on it to see if the article was newsworthy.
🚨 Just published a new article on EduClarity - 11 top tips for using data to support governance in schools and academy trusts: https://educlarity.co.uk/11-top-tips-for-using-data-to-support-governance-of-schools-and-academy-trusts/
If you're involved in #school or #academy #governance, hopefully there's some things in here that you'll find useful.
Made this well-snazzy chart for the school #governors' datapacks that I'm building. Pupil premium %s vs deprivation of school postcode. Outliers are the most interesting, but whole thing is useful to understand context of individual schools. https://educlarity.co.uk for more deets

Really productive day of board-related activities. Filming with @inspirelearnMAT@twitter.com, @tyntesfield@twitter.com school visit, then our strategic board meeting & audit committee. In the middle of all that was our @opendatamcr@twitter.com away day, looking at our strategy for next few years. Time for 😴😴😴
Just been interviewed by this pair about being chair of @inspirelearnMAT@twitter.com for our promotional video. Thanks @chrisbrinders@twitter.com for putting me at ease! Also great to get into @tyntesfield@twitter.com and see staff and children for the first time in ages!
I feel like this post has been written for me

Setting up something new, and I'm getting pretty excited about where this might end up...
Calling school governors / trustees. I'm writing a thing about governance and data, and I want to say something like "Governors, by the nature of their profession, are a diverse bunch" but I don't want to use the word 'profession'. What word fits better?? #schoolgovernance
I don't think I've ever seen a headline that I can relate to more than this
There's nothing quite like the feeling you get when you bite into caramel Freddo thinking it's a normal Freddo
