We drove to the Netherlands at half-term and on the way we listened to Anne Frank’s Diary.

On 2nd October 1869, Mahatma Gandhi was born in Porbandar, India. In assembly this week, the boys reflected on his life, learning about how he protested for Indian Independence and racial equality through peaceful means. I left the boys to think about one of Gandhi’s quotes:
“Be the change you want to see in the world.”
I spent the first half of this week with Prep and Junior School Heads from across the country at the 2023 IAPS Heads Conference in Liverpool. Over three days, it was interesting to hear from a range of speakers on topics such as A.I, metacognition, the socio-economic outlook, diversity, problem solving and creativity. These occasions always provide valuable opportunities to talk to other professionals, exchange ideas and to listen to, and learn from, the experience of Heads in other schools.
