Blocked by schools


I'm trying not to take it personally, but an odd thing has come up when I've been emailing schools today. In particular I've been emailing schools that I've visited before, in these three cases back in 2022, and asking if they'd like to have me back.

As ever I'm imagining the kids had a great time with my classes, and getting asked back again is not unusual. What is unusual is getting a return message saying my email message has been blocked.

I understand this when I'm emailing schools cold, out of the blue. Sometimes I even do bulk emails, which I can understand a school's system being geared up to protect against. But in these cases, I'm emailing the actual named person who I dealt with when I visited before, and I'm writing an email especially to them. One of them is the person at the council that actually arranged three library visits in a row for me, which I remember being really popular sellouts.

But these three schools or organisations, who I visited in the spring or summer of 2022, have blocked me. Like I say, trying not to take it personally. Though I have gone back and looked at the comics I produced with each of these classes. Might there be a clue in those..?
