Roughly 25-40k UK businesses have annual turnover of £10 million or more.
The full Founders’ Relief tests:
• founder still holding ≥25% from the very start of trading
• five years of continuous ownership and UK residency
• 15+ qualifying full-time employees excluding directors and contractors
• sustained 25% compound growth from a £10m base or equivalent R&D spend
• and the company still carrying on its original trade
…
So how many qualify?
The pool of companies that could ever produce a qualifying disposal are extremely small - on the order of hundreds to low thousands at most, or roughly 0.01% of the overall UK business population.
🫠
The UK budget is in. Here's everything you need to know:
🇬🇧 No exit tax or increase in capital gains
🇬🇧 Brand new "founder’s relief” - 10% tax up to £10m lifetime gains and BADR thresholds cut by half
🇬🇧 The non-compete ban we already knew about, but slightly more fleshed out
🇬🇧 The additional AI money, which we already knew about, but in more detail
🇬🇧 Some very important changes to visas to attract better talent to the UK
🇬🇧 £5bn for BBB including more money to back female founders
🇬🇧 "Young Entrepreneurs Allowance" which covers living costs for young entrepreneur
I have probably missed some bits but overall this is a lot more pro-tech and pro-entrepreneur than I think people were expecting.
Great stuff from @adepledge, @Dom_Hallas and all those working tirelessly behind the scenes to advocate for a strong entrepreneurial economy here in the UK.
LETS GO

We know questioning is one of the most powerful ways to activate student thinking but it’s not always easy to improve it in a busy school week.
That’s why we’re running the Great Teaching Questioning Challenge.
• Work with a small group of colleagues
• Trial practical techniques in your classroom
• Commit just 15 minutes a week
• All grounded in evidence-informed practice
Over six weeks, you’ll focus on one of the most impactful elements of great teaching and build habits that stick.
It’s free to participate and applications close on 17th April.

Quick fixes fade but when teachers develop their knowledge, skill and judgement, the impact lasts.
Professor Rob Coe expands more on this in this blog.

A special moment for Joe Root as he reaches 34 Test hundreds.
The man whose record he surpasses was watching on.
Sir Alastair Cook 🤝 Joe Root

Tonight’s shameful scenes do not represent our culture, our history, or our people. Our great city is built on togetherness and acceptance, and Sunderland will forever be for all. We are stronger as one community. Now. Then. Always. ❤️🤍

If I could get one sporting wish granted it would be to experience getting a ball in a test that I shape to block but it just seams a fraction and misses both the edge and the stumps, and I purse my lips to half whistle then smile really knowingly to say fair play well bowled

Supposing Jimmy Anderson's run-up is about 19 yards, and he's bowled 40,002 deliveries in Tests...
Well that's 760,038 yards, or 430 miles.
Which is, by chance, the distance on foot to walk from the Utilita Bowl to Chester-le-Street via every Test venue in England.

I’ve been using the GTT Evidence Review and the accompanying Great Teaching Toolkit for 2 years. It has has completely transformed the way I think about teaching and the way I plan and deliver my lessons/curriculum. @EvidenceInEdu @ProfCoe @ProfKime
It's been 4 years! 😱
On June 19th, 2020, we released the Great Teaching Toolkit: Evidence Review!
Since then, it has been translated into six languages (with one more in the works), downloaded over 250,000 times, and referenced by many!

At @Carousel_Learn / @SmartgradeUK we aim to pay individuals / small businesses within 2 working days of receiving an invoice. Late paying causes people hardship and stress - don’t do it.
