The @jrf_uk have an important report out today on the rise in destitution in the UK. This isn't relative poverty but people and families without adequate shelter, food or heat. You can see the numbers who are destitute, particularly children, has shot up.
Preparing to discuss typical FLN teacher profiles and what levers are best-placed to deliver the changes needed with @GSF_talks' Community of Practice, led by @EducAidSL_LDN@MiriamMasonSesa.
Looking forward to real talk from a deeply rooted, inspiring org. @401Erin
Sexual violence in schools is a widespread problem that affects millions of children. It's time to take action. The global education sector needs to do more to create safe and supportive learning environments for all children

@actnforchildren It is not indolence that leads to such high levels of poverty but deliberate policy decisions.
Pensioner poverty has halved in the last 20 years - which is great - but child poverty hasn't gone down at all.
These are choices.

Same same in int'l dev education. Millions spent on trends, exporting high resource (usually western) teaching solutions into contrasting contexts without due consideration of what's working vs what's not. Problems are defined from afar rather than understood up close.
Well done and good luck to the EducAid team participating in Plan International’s Education Uninterrupted Incubator, a youth-driven programme to advance uninterrupted access to inclusive quality education in Ghana and Sierra Leone.

Hard to put into words how it felt to visit @SPARKSchools last week. Care and ambition everywhere: on the walls, in the instruction & the behaviour management. I was so touched; I wish I learned to teach here. Thank you 🥰: outstanding work @stace_d_brewer & team.
