I’m just sick of it. The job of the journalists is to report the news accurately. That’s it.

We don’t need - or trust - them to assess whether the public are able to handle the news.

Please just do your job

Not only read it but had a great chat with @daveclements_ - which was very useful. The book is great.

[Dave Clements @daveclements_]

@redditchrache Thank you @redditchrache really enjoyed discussing and @joenutt_author for the kind words - looking forward to reading the report!

We’ve forgotten how to be adults. So obvious when you watch what the kids watch - YouTubers. It’s dominated by young adults making childish if somewhat inappropriate content - and making themselves rich - for the kids. Except they’re really making it for themselves - the kidults.

@joenutt_author Thanks @joenutt_author 🙏

[Joe Nutt @joenutt_author]

Just finished reading Dave’s hugely informative book, ‘The Crisis in the Classroom.’ Definitely recommend it to anyone interested in understanding more about what SEND really means, and how it impacts current schooling.

[Dave Clements @daveclements_]

It was great talking about the book with Breakfast TV legend Anne Diamond @GBNEWS

[GB News @GBNEWS]

‘There is not an easy solution to this.’

Policy Advisor and Author Dave Clement explains why he is calling for teachers and parents to play a greater role in helping SEND kids.

A good review of my book The Crisis in the Classroom: How the special needs explosion is destroying education @LuathPress https://t.co/pD5at902Ba

[Dave Clements @daveclements_]

I’ve already shared the online version, but it’s nice to see it in print. Baroness @amanda_spielman, former Ofsted chief inspector, reviews my book in parliament’s The House magazine.
