@Gloscol Tried emailing and calling Admissions about my son’s GCSE results and getting confirmation on whether he will be accepted on his course. No reply - not very helpful on results day. The uncertainty isn’t nice. Is anyone available at the College to help?

@Pandora_UK I ordered an item last Tuesday but it has not arrived. Can’t get through on the phone lines. Getting generic responses by email. It was an anniversary present - for yesterday😢

@CompAtSch @suesentance @bcs Computing is not just Computer Science. Computing is the umbrella covering Digital Literacy, IT and Computer Science. 2 of which are still essential skills but seem to have been forgotten by the @educationgovuk. @NickGibbUK and cronies have pressed the Delete button on them.

I’ve been away from Twitter for too long. Time to get back in the game. I resolve to learn something new each day about education that I can apply in some way, or use in the future. It has been an inspiring and life affirming day in so many ways. Thank you for making it special.

@jillberry102 @Burrovski @HMCPD The whole day was excellent. Many thanks.
