Great day supporting our FE colleagues in Parliament launching the #MindTheSkillsGap campaign. Over 100 sector leaders gathered @ Westminster to meet MPs & ask gov’t to support colleges in meeting the increasingly important skills agenda. @AoC_info@DarcyAmamou@LuminateEdGroup
Skills are absolutely vital to the future’s economy but the further education sector needs adequate funding to be able to deliver these. We’re pleased to be at Westminster today supporting the #mindtheskillsgap campaign, along with principals from across West Yorkshire @AoC_info

@itskeithriley@HomeServeUK Thank you! We do have emergency cover with our home insurance, but Friday is the quickest they can even get an emergency contractor out... 🥲 at least we've managed to salvage our coffee machine and kettle! #PMA 🙃
Came back from a weekend away to find our kitchen ceiling had collapsed due to rain water. No roofers available until Friday. And it’s just about to snow. Happy Monday people ✌🏼🙃
@nicholasgfearn Hey @nicholasgfearn - I work in FE & we can talk about this in relation to our 16-18 learners, but also adults and those young people who study with us at 14 as school isn't the right environment. My email address is [email protected] if you want to chat more. Thanks!
Great to have @rachelreevesMP & @bphillipsonMP at our Printworks Campus this morning. It was an opportunity to showcase the work we're doing to prepare students for their futures, with a tour of our facilities including hair & beauty, and @engineeringlcc.
