After reading through all your comments on the curriculum review, one question keeps coming up… how on earth are teachers supposed to fit even more in? There are some brilliant ideas here: oracy, digital literacy, financial education, enrichment. But if we’re adding more,

Good morning good people of Twitterland, I hope this morning finds you fit and well. I have my kit ready for another morning with my fellow fixers of the Woking Repair Cafe, this month @ St. Mary's Community Centre. Byfleet, open from 10-1. Have a great weekend one and all.

🚨Essential viewing. Watch National Education Union Treasurer Hazel Danson break down what school cuts mean — in real terms. #StopSchoolCuts

Anyone know why a bunch of people with shares in GBNews are wanting the BBC defunded?

Ofsted say leaders should feel “energised, not anxious” about the inspection changes... but when their own review warns of increased workload, trial inspections feel worse and the Big Listen still hasn’t been published, it’s no wonder the profession isn’t buying it. Trust isn’t

I wish I didn’t have to share this. But the BBC has decided to censor my first Reith Lecture. They deleted the line in which I describe Donald Trump as “the most openly corrupt president in American history.” /1

One of the clearest, most honest explanations of the SEND crisis I’ve read. If you want to understand why EHCPs have risen and what’s really driving the pressure in schools, this article nails it. Worth every teacher, leader and policymaker’s time. Read it here:

"Reform UK's barrister tried to scare us. Our advice to other news sites: don't play the bullies game." Martin Shipton on being bullied by Reform's lawyers: thenerve.news/p/reform-natio…

After the video I posted last week about the motherhood penalty, and how the invisible load expected of mums has seeped into the workload issues in a female-dominated profession, this just takes it further. Teacher maternity pay compared to the rest of the public sector makes

About time someone with some influence said it

We spoke to a grandmother at Valley school about why she is supports National Education Union members on strike over the introduction of a 'virtual teacher'. “School's about relationship and community. Virtual teachers are the thin end of the wedge.” We couldn’t agree more! #SaveEducation

The day that Nigel Farage is walked out of Traitor’s Gate will be a good day Led by Donkeys nailing it again

Our Statement in response to President Trump's comments: The service and sacrifice of British personnel in Afghanistan cannot be called into question, and we condemn any comments that undermine their extraordinary contribution.

Ha ha ha, for a second there I thought that Ofsted were including in their judgements whether a 4 year old child was sitting 'properly' to write. Because to reduce the complexities of a whole school's teaching provision to something like this would be fucking ludicrous..

Designing the job spec for a primary school teacher…

Molly’s story isn’t just about technology. It’s about power. About what happens when the systems shaping our children’s lives operate without real accountability. This film asks a question we all need to sit with. Who is really in control? As parents. As teachers. As

If you ever wonder why there’s an anti-school narrative bubbling away... this is it. Paying parents to frame SEND support as “money taken from other children” isn’t balance. It’s bait. Children with additional needs aren’t the problem. Chronic underfunding is. Let’s stop pitting

Man who wants strict borders is annoyed at encountering strict borders... 🤦
