Headteacher, Mum of Two Under Three, Permanently Tired. Hoping to be an inspiration to some by proving you can have a career and motherhood without sacrifice.
This is Nick Gibb. He's been Schools Minister on and off since 2010!
This morning taken apart by every journalist on every channel re RAAC and his decision to not publish the list of over 100 schools being forced to close
Caught out fair and square by @RobbieRinder on @GMB ⏬️
We’re thrilled to announce that #DearEngland is coming to the West End 🙌

'So much wrong here… The total lack of support from the head and trust. Asking the person to resign. The media and social bullying by the parent. The media sensationalising. The destruction of a committed young teacher. All involved should be ashamed'

Finally, a free, easy and clear strategy that we can all use during the visit, and all in keeping with the spirit of the process. Please don’t retweet and put the idea well and truly out there….

We can't all be wrong, @GillianKeegan.
Thanks to everyone that has been in touch being kind or sharing your challenges with mental health. Ofsted cannot consider going on as is. The damage to hard working, compassionate people is unacceptable. Rogue inspectors, pre-determined outcomes, punishing inclusivity. #Stop
Decline in student behaviour
Decline in teacher pay
Decline in teacher respect
Decline in school funding
Increase in teacher workload
Increase in teacher stress
Increase in parental complaints
Increase in teachers striking
Continuing recruitment and retention crisis.
"The education system cannot continue to limp on without its single most important resource – enough teachers. The government must act for the good of staff and children.”
#ASCLmembers overwhelmingly reject government's pay offer: https://t.co/Oadgv0mIQn
Caller on another radio station:
“We’re one of the only public sector jobs where there are no guidelines about how teachers are treated by parents and carers. If someone is abusive in a doctor’s surgery there are consequences. In a school, not so”
Does this chime with you?
Further teacher strike dates have been announced. We set out the facts of the teacher pay offer and how it was fully funded. Read everything you need to know:

“The government appears to be more interested in playing political games than ending the industrial dispute. The fact that they have ignored our proposal to bring in ACAS reinforces that impression”: my comments on behalf of @ASCL_UK today: https://t.co/TZWqT79rhO
“The vast majority of schools are incredibly cautious about the teaching of Relationships & Sex Education, but they are constantly subjected to unhelpful potshots from various individuals and groups": my comments on behalf of @ASCL_UK: https://t.co/JYdkkjSVim
