@parcelforce lies. I waited all day for delivery. Tracking says "addressee requested later delivery". A lie. This counts as a delivery. Sham! Clearly intending to push me to pick up from depot. Bad service.

[Maccs Pescatore @Maccs_Pesc]

@parcelforce you lie. I waited all day for delivery. Tracking says "addressee requested later delivery". A lie. This is counted as attempt. Shocking! I'd predict no 2nd attempt tomorrow. What a sham. You are a disgrace.

[Mark Johnston @StuntmanNinjaUK]

@parcelforce more and more disgusted every day. Parcel 10 days late, lie after lie. 2 promises of callback by manager, no callback, no parcel. Shocking customer service

[Maccs Pescatore @Maccs_Pesc]

@AddieQuinnear @parcelforce PF lies. This company is a disgrace. If I don't get my parcel tomorrow, I'll go out on social media inc LinkedIn.

[Maccs Pescatore @Maccs_Pesc]

@R_WF_Draper @parcelforce PF lies. I stayed in all day. Tracking page says "addressee requested later delivery". A lie. This counts as a delivery attempt. No confidence that "2nd" delivery will happen. It's a push for me to collect. A sham. I will put on social media.

[Maccs Pescatore @Maccs_Pesc]

@parcelforce @blugun This company lies. I waited all day. The tracking page says "addressee requested later delivery". I did not. This is a delivery attempt. What! I have no confidence that the "2nd" attempt will happen. They want me to collect my own package despite paying for delivery. Sham!

@anniegarthwaite I'd gift a copy to Rachel, a friend of a friend, who discovered screenplay writing recently
after a rare condition closed off acting. She advocates for women's voices through her characters. An imaginative mind. Strong, resilient and determined. @RossiterBooks @anniegarthwaite

The term ‘school readiness’ is commonly used, but what does it actually mean?

We want to understand what ‘school readiness’ means to educators, care-givers, parents and children so we can better support children's transition from early years learning environments to school.
