I was when I first arrived to the UK. I needed it. So I am eternally grateful And then I found a job, and paid it all back in many ways, like the huge majority of emigrants do The world needs emigrants to run (or ex pats, whatever you want to call them)

SEND provision is important but this suggests that "SEND" has become an elastic term - and if accurate - adds currency to the belief that some parents are gaming the system.

If this doesn’t make you feel sick, if you aren’t outraged at a state that not only does this but is proud to film and publicise it, if you think this is the limits of Israeli barbarism, there’s something wrong with you

Deborah E. Lipstadt UN Watch I may be a "horrible horrible person", but I am neither accused of war crimes/crimes against humanity before the Int'l Criminal Court, nor paid to defend a state accused of Genocide before the CIJ_ICJ. I can live with that.

The level of hatred towards Labour is unprecedented, Starmer has no conception of how unpopular they are right now. They’re out of touch so incapable of grasping the scale of it. Everyone hates him and hates Labour viscerally, so yet another relaunch is not going to make a dent

As I've written this evening, can we please stop pretending Keir Starmer represents some sort of "change" to the traditional political order. The Pogrund/Yorke revelations demonstrate he is just as politically cynical and manipulative as his predecessors.

Does teacher centred teaching reduce inequality? Yes according to this study. Explicit instruction is associated with higher mathematics attainment for low SES pupils, while student centred instruction shows no such equity effect. Takeaways: if the goal is to reduce inequality

The tragedy is that we absolutely know how to solve this problem. It's hard work, but not rocket science. Children need to be taught habits of successful behaviour, clear boundaries, and predictable consequences. They need to know that the adults in the room with them are in

I've just been chatting with Nick Cullinan, the excellent new director of the British Museum, and I'm very relieved to say that the story put by the Daily Telegraph about the BM cancelling the name Palestine is a complete misrepresentation of the facts: "To reassure you we are

This alone is a resigning offence. That’s not hyperbole. It’s exactly what Labour would be calling for if this happened under a Tory PM.

The Peter Mandelson scandal has exposed how our rotten political system really works. Make no mistake: we have barely scratched the surface.

The political journalist class are now properly scrutinising the people behind Starmer. Better late than never I guess. Shame it didn't happen in 2019! Thousands of us who were in the Labour Party at the time knew what they were like... and well, we did try to warn everyone!

The Times editorial on the Labour Together scandal seems spectacularly reluctant to accept that LT has been a dirty tricks outfit since at least 2017 - perhaps because during the Corbyn years, the Times would happily print the smears
