33% pass rate after 5 years of United Learning in charge at John Roan. How does Jon Coles explain this? He said results would improve with the ULT.

ULT are now refusing to provide a business case to the DfE over its pension plans. The wrongheaded move by the Academy Chain is now on a collision course with both the Government, and unions. schoolsweek.co.uk/academy-trust-…

Isolation on Trial. After a drama which ramps the pressure on Department for Education to review isolation practices, and a verdict which vindicates nothing, what schools & kids need now is reflection & nuance. But instead, they got Conservative-era behaviour tsar Tom Bennett... 🧵

‘Zero-tolerance’ behaviour policies at a London school have been heavily criticised in a review with 'national implications' tes.com/magazine/news/…

The response is by Jim Gamble, commissioner at CHSCP. He uses his letter to critique Bennett's extraordinary outburst, dismissing him as "stamping his feet in the playground". It include specific reference to various facts & data which TB has ignored. ⬇️ chscp.org.uk/wp-content/upl…
