Continuity in Education
In 2012 we have witnessed an erosion of service to our vulnerable pupils in some European countries.
May 2013 be a year where we make progress in our aim to provide education to children and young adults who are sick. New Year’s Day is the first blank page of a 365 page book. Write a good one. (Thanks to Brad Paisley).
We wish you a peaceful new year and all the best for 2013.
