@Ej99King@MichaelRosenYes My daughter and I did family learning together and she did a speech on how in school she was average and invisible, but at home,anything was possible. She was predicted 5 GCSE's if lucky and gained 12. Family Learning was the significant factor for her and her friends.

Tomorrow, 40,000 BT and Openreach workers will strike for decent pay.
Last year, BT Group made £1.3bn profit, gave £750m to shareholders and paid £3.5m to its CEO.
Meanwhile, many of its workers were forced to use foodbanks.
RT if you support their strike 👊
