@helenmallam Yes, and #r4today, how come demonstrations of half a million people about oil or Gaza get no coverage, but when your mates the farmers do something you're all over it like a rash.

@julianswainson @BBCNews Too many shameful editorial choices by @BBCNews in the name of 'balance'.

@helenmallam How does Liz 4% Kendall get to a position where she's able to on pontificate on how the rest of us live? If they want to know why the public has lost faith in politics they should look to decisions about how people like her are promoted.

[The Sutton Trust @suttontrust]

The opportunities and life chances of a child born today are strongly linked to their parents’ socioeconomic background.

That's why we fight for social mobility from birth to the workplace so that every young person, no matter their background, has the chance to succeed 🚀

This blogpost is really worth reading. Gove expanded the issuing of penalties for non-attendance. But there is no reason for a draconian insistence on school attendance: there is no evidence that more attendance = better outcomes. New govt should undo Gove's macho showmanship.

[Andrew Defty @adefty]

Fines for term-time holidays are back in the news. Fixed penalties were introduced by Labour in 2003 to deal with persistent absences, Gove changed this to cover any absence, but as I argue here, without proper parliamentary scrutiny. https://t.co/yzkemY7rMj

More compassionate and inclusive 'behaviour' approaches on the way.

An educational psychologist as the new 'behaviour tsar'?!
