it s not a rare occurrence. they do come up onto beaches if they get caught up by the tide, or if they are actually hunting for food. octopus have hundreds of suckers on their arms, and they can actually taste sound when they are moving around. so, this octopus was probably up on the beach, tasting and seeing if there was anything dug into the sand. you can see the mantle that they have behind their eyes. that actually enables them to suck sea water into the mantle, hold it in, and they can survive holding that water in and using that to breathe. so these guys can probably go ten, 20 minutes, 30 minutes out of the water, looking for food. or if they are moving between rock pools, it helps them moving around. when we came back from having gone for the swim, we were so deliriously happy, because we d seen this fella. and ijust wanted to share it. and it was so nice to see that everyone else clearly loved him just as much as we did. so, yes, it s been curious. my phone has been pinging no

last year, up until october 2020. that is around 78,000 children being home educated. of course, there are parents that believe it is the right thing to for their children. we are not trying to stop that will prevent that in any way. but there are other parents forced into it because they have been let down by the system. there are often too many cases of oft rolling, which is informal exclusion, where parents are again forced into home educating their children. we know that 5% of schools, according to the previous children s commissioner, 5% of schools are responsible for 40% of children withdrawn from school to be home educated. clearly, there is a problem. we are saying there should be this register, there should be assessment and there also should be assessment and there also should be a level playing field for exams, because if we are saying that children should be assessed once a year, if they are home educated, on a basic maths and english, we should at least fund through the go
