Blogs

This is a new development for us. These weblogs, or 'blogs' are where people involved in the work of Public Achievement can share their thoughts and ideas with you.

If you'd like to run a blog through the site, or if there is someone you'd like to hear from - get in touch. Public Achievement is a learning organisation, and we are keen to hear from people with different experiences and perspectives about the things that are important to them.

Paulsblog

Hi there! I am Paul Smyth, Director of Public Achievement - and I will be using this blog to share my thoughts on the site on a wide range of issues. The blog will be more interesting if you respond and give me your ideas too. Don't forget to check out the other blogs on the site too.

At Public Achievement we love questions and critical thought - so whilst I may not have the answer to your questions, they might lead to an iteresting discussion or new ideas, so keep it coming! We are also happy to link to interesting external sites and blogs. My only caution is that this site is used actively by people of all ages and backgrounds - your comments should be sensitive to this reality.

If you'd like to blog on the site yourself, we'd love to hear from you.
