The UK will lead the way in ensuring AI delivers the best start for our children. We will examine how technology can improve staff workload, pupils’ results and inclusivity for children with additional needs. My speech to the Education World Forum: gov.uk/government/spe…

Many reasonable points here. Labour to Reform switchers exist and matter a lot in Red Wall. But it's not true that left defectors only live in safe seats. Overall in marginals won from Con, Lab is losing more to left than right. And ceiling on left losses is higher everywhere.

Interesting but I can only see the Abstract. Not sure how you can study Cognitive Offloading using surveys and interviews but ho hum what do I know....

My joint statement with Emmanuel Macron and Mark Carney on the situation in Gaza and the West Bank.

Govt now has 3 deals 🇺🇸🇮🇳🇪🇺 it can point to as part of a delivery mantra. But there's work to do to convince the public these are good deals for the UK. More think both got a good deal on the India deal, but the US deal is seen as better for the US & future EU deals a split

🚨The most important graph in British politics👇 Why are average wages no higher than in 2008? The argument for capitalism is that gradually everyone becomes better off. But for 17 years that hasn't been happening. Why is Britain's economy stuck?🧵

More economic analysis on the current state of the UK economy.

More good news. AI is about to eviscerate entry level professional jobs

I would suspect this is an over simplification and more time is needed to assess the impact of increased Capital Gains taxes but it highlights the ongoing challenge of taxing wealth.

Without ambitious policy change, child poverty is projected to increase dramatically over the next decade. In fact, should the Government continue with existing policy, our projections suggest child poverty will hit 33 per cent in 2029-30, a level not seen since 1998-99.

This shows occupations in demand. The report supports the introduction of foundation & shorter #apprenticeships to better align with evolving labour market demands & needs. Plus, stronger careers guidance pre-19; we need that earlier in school too! AI only mentioned twice!

Interesting but you can't help feeling that education is far too ideological in its ambitions for assessment. Only 11 % of Oxbridge students are working class. Socio-economic circumstance is the best indicator of success. All educational assessments do is certify that reality.

A paper on the benefits of testing. In this case more focused on retrieval than assessment
