@MrBoothY6 I also feel like this about lots of the tests seems to be more about how children cope under the timed element than the actual application of knowledge , same with the MTC test. Plenty of children who know their times tables, why 6 seconds!

@_MissieBee Do you have a local authority maintained Nursery School near you? If so I would check that out. X

Things I want my tax money going to:

- health
- education
- justice
- environment

Things I don’t want my tax money going to:

- Donors
- Private healthcare
- MPs’ pockets
- Tax havens
- Tyrannical, genocidal govts

It’s not a lot to ask, is it?

I do not understand pumpkin PYO in a muddy field where the pumpkins did not grow at all… it’s a madness and a sword a will die on 😂🤯

6.5% is a good offer. Better than I was expecting for us to have on the table. But if it isn’t funded it’s game over for so much of education. You can expect gargantuan class sizes, four day weeks, no extra curricular provision, no teaching assistants and decimated SEN provision.

[Lcrawford @Lcrawf84]

@Son_of_Stan Ha ha ha ha

Whilst it is a no brainer that funded childcare needs to begin much earlier than 3 , if the new announcements are not funded properly it is paying lip service to it. Early education is the most vital yet the most severely underfunded sector. #earlyyears #funding

"This government could end up crashing the childcare system just as they crashed the economy"

Labour's Stella Creasy says today's announcement needs to be backed up with the money needed to properly fund childcare or it will harm not help

I have seen an email today sent to all parents in a school naming a teacher choosing to strike! Surely only the parents of the children in that class needed to know it would be closed. I hope this is an oversight and not an attempt to shame a teacher #isupportstrikingteachers.

[David__Osland @David__Osland]

Last night, 315 MPs voted to sack strikers. At the next general election, vote to sack them.

[Secret Headteacher @secretHT1]

Nurses
Teachers
Ambulances
NHS Physios
Junior Doctors (being balloted)
Train drivers
Teachers
University staff
Civil servants
Postal workers
Fire Brigade
Criminal barristers

All of these services striking.

They can’t all be wrong.

The people are not the problem.

[Secret Headteacher @secretHT1]

In all the furore that might get caused on Wednesday during the strike, feel free to mention to anyone and everyone that the DFE and Ofsted are also on strike that day.

That one is being kept very quiet.

Funny that the Ed Sec isn’t commenting on this!!!!

[James Theo @JamesTheo]

Just in case you weren’t aware, Ofsted and DfE staff are also on strike on the 1st February. https://t.co/N5pg1zCaZ1

[Jon Biddle @jonnybid]

Strike action in schools isn't going to have any real long-term impact on a child. But endless funding cuts, a retention crisis caused by pay & conditions, collapsing staff morale & the unnecessary pressures created by Ofsted & excessive accountability, yeah, I think that might.
