@MrMcEnaney Just to add my 2 cents to this. I worked in a school in South Korea- children wore their own clothes so disadvantage was stark and obvious. When a class were bought matching jumpers by their class teacher, the kids all wore them relentlessly and didn’t want to take them off

You’d be hard pushed to find a better role model for social mobility and supporting disadvantaged young people than #freddieflintoff what an amazing and inspiring bloke #freddiesfieldofdreams

@DrFayND @RichardBurgon More money would be a very good start - it would mean we could invest in some more SEND leadership, training and support. We do not have the budgets needed to deal with the rising issues. It is a crisis.

[ExecHeadSW @DeputyHeadSW]

@KHenderson_HT @teachwellall I agree. For some reason, we expect people to not be entitled to salaries equivalent to the business world. £130k a year for a CEO is pretty cheap IMO.

[ExecHeadSW @DeputyHeadSW]

@mrprimary21 @secretHT1 @bphillipsonMP Not to mention these constant claims of ‘headroom’ in current budgets🤨

[ExecHeadSW @DeputyHeadSW]

Day 2 of headship - freshening things up. Lots to do. 💪

[ExecHeadSW @DeputyHeadSW]

@branwenjeffreys If Safeguarding matters that much, it should be independent of the framework and reviewed more regularly. You can’t tell me that legacy outstanding schools don’t need that reviewing for over a decade. It’s a farce.

[ExecHeadSW @DeputyHeadSW]

Enjoying hearing from some parents of former pupils today telling me about the A-level successes for my first class (Y5-6 2014-16) You never forget your first class - always special. So proud of them.

@joeb_EY We are all her.

[ExecHeadSW @DeputyHeadSW]

This is horrifying and terrifying in equal measure. Is this where we are at? Being a DSL is a load of stressful accountability enough on its own without this insanity. Depleted services, real risk. No wonder this wasn’t top priority. Should have been thrown out.

@MichaelT1979 ‘Planned maintenance’ 😂😂😂

[ExecHeadSW @DeputyHeadSW]

@labourpress with an open goal at the GE and doing little to encourage teachers that they will offer anything that will improve things for the experienced majority, budgets or conditions. Very worrying.

[ExecHeadSW @DeputyHeadSW]

Every year that MPs have had their imbalanced pay rises compared to the rest of the public sector, the defence has been that they are ‘following the independent review body’ - this will be beyond unacceptable when it happens https://t.co/gye7tpxEU4

@paws4thought112 @mrskhorne @Talk4Writing @PieCorbett @janeconsidine @son1bun @MichaelT1979 This thread is absolutely full of inaccuracies. Ofsted has nothing to do with moderation.

@frankkilopezzz @CensoredHead I think this is it. It’s probably just enough to keep the wolves from the door but not enough for us
