I’m not a Guardian reader but this really struck a chord. Very true- TA’s should be better paid and their contribution recognised #TeachingAssistant Teaching assistants 'unsung heroes' of pandemic, study shows theguardian.com/education/2021…

BBC is saying Teaching assistants get 22-24k a year. Their pay is pro-rata so they only get paid for 39 weeks out of 52, and often they work less 37 hours a week, giving an actual salary of £15, 600- £17,000. Please check your facts BBC News (UK)

Best wishes to everyone who read my regular column in The Countryman's Weekly , and especially those who got in touch having read my book ‘Thinking Fishing’#thinkingfishing Tight Lines for 2022 #fishing
