New Year's Greeting (academically speaking)!


During the summer break the last thing on my mind (or anyone else's) were the educational experiments that I am overseeing in our department here at Acton College. Well, we've been 'kick-started' back to life, in that tomorrow, I have to shepherd our department through roll-out and then through all our pre-flight ground checks and standby for our experimental first flight next week...

Yep, it feels a bit like the first flight of the Airbus A380 ...and the number of 'passengers' (read 'students' on board our Additional Learning Support (ALS) department are about equal, too. Welcome aboard, if you dare!
