If safety means telling Jewish fans they can’t attend a football match,
something’s gone badly wrong with what “safety” means in Britain.
After the Manchester attacks, Jewish communities were told: “Don’t let fear win.” Today, Israeli fans are being banned from Aston Villa for their own safety. What message does that send to every Jewish person in Britain? @GMB

Final planting of the tubs for the front of @NortonCollege. Daffodils, tulips, primula and myositis for a colourful spring display.
Fantastic end to the term for both y12 and y13. Followed @mrsjmasters idea and completed a Chi squared analysis on tub of chocolates. All chocolates disappeared by the end of the lesson

Have got an acronym to share that I've made for my sixth formers to help with their data/graph describe questions in biology. STAMPE. Say what you see. Trends. Anomalies/ outliers. Manipulate data. Peaks. Error bars. Can share with students or adapt! #cogSciSci

Looking forward to see how the bedding at the front of @NortonCollege has coped with the extreme temperatures this summer. They had a makeover last week deadheading flowers. #pelargoniums

More from Private Eye this week on the Guildhall. @cityofyork PR no doubt now stopped digging. You can't win. The Council chamber (which is Listed) wasn't "refurbished" - just cleaned. No EIA is needed for that. & there are several level-access disabled spaces in the chamber.
