teatime

I saw a blip outside the lounge window, a blackbird eating red berries, with the sun setting to the side over a snowy scene, I edged my way forwards to get the best shot without frightening the bird away, and got a beaut. Then.... saw 'no cf' in the little camera window :( ho hum back to the drawing board.
DS and his SO came in from school at that moment, so I tootled down there and snapped away. They were very patient with me, and lovely together. They are still down there giggling away, there are some quiet moments - I guess that's when they're drinking their tea?!

I've done more work form my MA, reading about the different ways schools try to equalise education for children (via results, via overcoming barriers for particular groups, or enhancing other capacities and skills in disadvantaged groups). all schools are a mix of all 3, its interesting where they sit between them.
