On Thursday eve I booked rtn @Ryanair flights London/Malaga for a family holiday. It appears that my surname was changed by Ryanair on the booking from "Reed" to "Redgrave". Now you won't let me change it back without a £230 charge...1/5

Important new @EduPolicyInst research today on the disadvantage gap and differences in local trends. Isos Partnership are pleased to be collaborators on the Funding Futures project and in 2025 will be exploring what lies behind these figures and lessons for targeting support.
Today @EduPolicyInst publishes our new report on local disadvantage gaps in England.
We explore which areas have the smallest + largest disadvantage gaps in recent years and how these change as children progress through the system.

It’s excellent news that the government is committed to expanding childcare, but increased entitlement must be matched by more provision and places.

Another excellent @IPPR report on early education and childcare offering the metrics evidencing the challenge facing this government in turning the present ECEC system into a more equitable one.
Over two-thirds of parents of young children who work in professions like lawyers, doctors and architects use formal childcare, compared to less than half of parents with occupations such as cleaners, care workers and hairdressers.

"Our sector and its dedicated professionals, including childminders, have been neglected for too long. As this report demonstrates, that can no longer be ignored."

We're pleased to hear that an increase of £1bn has been announced for children with SEND in the budget today. We're looking forward to working with the government to ensure that the early years are represented and that all children with SEND get the best start in life.

£1.8 billion looks like a chunky commitment to childcare - and it is.
But this isn't new money; it's recommitting to the plans Chancellor Hunt announced in March 2023.
The bigger Budget *change* will be felt in childcare settings' bills: they face a triple whammy on pay.

The public know we need a plan for hardship
Stats published today show 3 in 4 believe there is quite a lot of real poverty in Britain - the highest level since 1986 according to @NatCen

Check out this thought provoking piece from the excellent Isos Associate @salhogg on the need to think differently about how we structure specialist expertise in order to for local systems to deliver better early support.
My new blog for @IsosPartnership describes why we need to move away from the traditional universal/targeted/specialist triangle, and instead deploy specialist expertise strategically across the population.
