It was lovely to meet students from @fourdwellingspa during their visit and tour of @HouseofCommons.

It’s always so great to see young people engaging in and learning about politics. I hope they enjoyed their time in Parliament!

[school data updates @jpembroke]

Some more *provisional* results. MTC based on approx 40,000 pupils; KS1 and phonics based on approx. 75,000 pupils.

Note: DfE don't calculate a combined figure for KS1 for some reason.

To reiterate: these are provisional figures.

... aaaand breathe!
Y5 @fourdwellingspa are thinking about the biomes that make up our planet this half-term.
Today, the lungs of our world - rainforest - & the unique flora & fauna they contain.
Our collages reflected their layers, which we labelled.

We are deeply saddened by the news about Her Majesty the Queen. A sad day, but an incredible life.

There can surely be no better example of selfless service for our children.

Our condolences are with her family.
