Independent Education is a gift.
One that just got up to 20% more expensive.
You better be thinking how to add some more bows to your wrapping....
Well this is startlingly embarrassing.
Many years ago I took this blog down. Why? Because I was too busy working on writing content for others, that I didn’t have any inclination to write for myself. And, I’m not one of those marketers that feel the need to constantly write ‘something’ in order to sell themselves (sorry, that’s a brutal truth).
I’ve popped it back up. Why? Well, to be absolutely honest, I need to link to something when doing online training - like the LIS I do with Jill Berry and Andrew Hampton.
But perhaps, by setting this live for that reason, I should try to say something, sometimes. (But, also, please don’t hold your breath).
Beware 'The Coffee-Chatterers'.
They can, and often will be, overheard.
They are your staff. Your parents. Sometimes your pupils too.
Do schools have their own version of Black Friday?
A date that is vital in their admission process.
Or to put it in ‘commercial speak’; a day that could be pivotal in sales revenue…
So, Specsavers have successfully trademarked the word ‘should’ve’.
And ‘Probably’ is taken by Carlsberg.
Which kind-of makes me wish I’d trademarked ‘individual’ for a school I worked with 20+ years ago.
