@stevensallis @GoodNewsCorres1 Leadership is about making the right decisions in life. I would expect a “mindset” author to get that. You can win another race, you don’t always get another chance to do the right thing.

@cernusson @Joealle83391495 Eating is more important than the location. If it’s an issue perhaps you sit with the child and ask them why the TV is important, or try to create a win/win situation. Whatever you do don’t be punitive and punish. The above comment is really out of the book of how not to do it

@DavidOlusoga “IThis is about racists and anti-racists - not black and white.” What a fantastic statement we can all rally behind. This was never black v white, but about how much you care about changing the future for the better. I say it again, what is it some white men are scared of?

Any parents/carers with #send children sitting SATS in the coming weeks. You can pull them out. They serve no purpose toward you child's future and just cause unnecessary mental health issues. Pull them out and tell the school they aren't doing them.
