Vaccinate nursery staff now and teachers working with key worker children. We are working alongside all essential services when the infection is at it’s highest. We are the backbone allowing NHS to operate. #COVID19Vaccination #NHS #nurseries #schools #TeachersLivesMatter

[Priyanka Batra @Heidibatra]

@vicderbyshire Not great! My staff are putting their lives at risk in nurseries and are not getting the protection of the vaccines. Our funding stops if we close yet schools get to protect their staff. It’s just not fair! Protect the people taking care of your children.

Nurseries offer to keep Reception pupils until 2021. Group of early years providers urges the government to consider allowing children to stay on at nursery until January 2021http://ow.ly/ipBx30qELRF | TES

Can nurseries remain sustainable now and beyond COVID-19? I have written an article in @OpenAccessGov discussing this question https://t.co/Sq8jnZ3mVf

Had a chat with the BBC tonight. Give me a new take on the furlough debacle he asked. How about the demise of the sector I said. Enough news?? #earlyyears #coronavirus

Coronavirus: Warning that 250,000 childcare places could be lost https://t.co/XlLStFoxQe

@Heidibatra @elley1203 @NurseryWorld @SLLovegrove @EYAlliance @NDNAtalk Same here. 2 locally have closed now to keyworkers and laid off staff on the basis of this. This was understood to be a job retention scheme. No incentive to retain jobs.....guess what!

[Priyanka Batra @Heidibatra]

@NurseryWorld Can’t help but feel guilty at the thought of closing to key workers, at the same time how much more can I afford to lose! Feeling so helpless.

Just finished latest shift at hospital .
Nose and ears sore from wearing masks for last 48hrs but not complaining as despite media reports we have plenty of PPE. Love being back working in #NHS @MattHancock #StayHomeSaveLives

Thread: In a shock move this weekend, the Government announced that early years providers will not be able to fully access funding from the #JobRetentionScheme and the #earlyyears entitlement funding.../1

[Dr June O'Sullivan OBE @JuneOSullivan]

We had been preparing to upload data onto the HMRC #furlough portal today. Minister @vickyford promised furlough & funded places would be treated separately but this has been over-ridden by @hmtreasury. Does this mean redundancies are our only option? https://t.co/JQtO80jG1f

[Priyanka Batra @Heidibatra]

@BBCBreakfast @NinaWarhurst Please do not ignore this injustice

[Priyanka Batra @Heidibatra]

@BBCBreakfast @NinaWarhurst https://t.co/IQJwGDQAfk… we trusted what you said when you said we can access the job retention scheme and furloughed our staff.

[Rebecca Jones @RebeccaMeakin91]

@education_rob @NurseryWorld The rate of funding from the @educationgovuk doesnt equate to a daily childcare rate, let alone sustain staff wages, therefore still leaving directors of nurseries with no/limited options to pay their staff. Hard times made harder by the government! @BorisJohnson #COVID19

[Matt Lloyd @mwl462]

A remarkable move by the government sticking two fingers up to early years providers who are now increasingly likely the go to the wall.
The fact the DfE talks about enforcement of incorrect claims while swinging the knife is extremely callous
