Wow! Is it true @GillianKeegan, that the STRB has recommended more than inflation, but you intend not to honour it? Is that what you are hiding? #PublishSTRBNow

I couldn’t turn down this opportunity today to speak about the vital role of children’s centres and the importance of early intervention
Replying to @vicgoddard
POLITICAL VANDALISM? OFSTED MARKING OWN HOMEWORK Days like today (elsewhere) I’m reminded Vic by how often this happens, little difference between poachers and gamekeepers in this establishment ruled and run country, regardless of who’s in government, tho the synergy has been particularly immense these last few years Hearing these two chats by @mrjamesob, one with @SiobhanHead about SureStart would make the most hardened cynic wonder if there WAS sense in scrapping SureStart centres if: 1: you made money selling oven chips 2: you made money running a privatised health and intervention service It’s as if it’s been a government that deliberately created problems that it can make money from by solving, regardless of the human cost Let’s not forget that even the penal system is hugely profitable (for someone) and goes a long way to explaining an education system designed to fail a third of young people Up and on No more #LongGovid - time for #ProjectHope

While you're in Bournemouth for #NEU2024 why not drop by the Activist Zone and consign your education ick to the dustbin of history? #NEU2024

After just 5yrs, teachers in Scotland are paid a whopping 17% more than their colleagues in England. The recruitment & retention crisis in our schools & colleges won't be solved without a fair, fully funded pay rise. Use your vote in our preliminary ballot on 2 March. #PayUp24

Last year, @GillianKeegan promised to speed up the STRB process, but she didn't send her remit until late December. If the Govt backs a paltry 1-2% pay rise for teachers this year, this will be an outrage: the @NEUnion will launch a preliminary online ballot on 2 March. #PayUp24

Following the Coroner's 'Prevention of future deaths' report, about Ruth Perry's suicide, inspections should be paused until Ofsted can demonstrate that they can inspect with enough empathy to ensure that this never, ever, happens again. RT, if you agree.
