It is a matter of historic record that when Parliament passed the Education Act of 1944, it deliberately safeguarded the right of parents — not the state — to determine their children’s education, as a bulwark against totalitarianism. (4/5) @LabourList
Today I spoke during the Second Reading of the Children's Wellbeing and Schools Bill in the House of Lords today. It contains vastly authoritarian measures to clamp down on home education under the pretext of safeguarding, but actually will cause great harm (1/5). @LabourList
@TheBillySprigg@David__Osland Great! State schools are already failing kids, there's no spaces left anyway, kids are leaving in their drives for home ed or to scrape into private. All that will happen is the LAs will simply send the kids back to the state schools and pay the fees for them.
@McLarenF1 My first race watch in 4 years after saying I'd never watch again. You've just confirmed to me why I made the decision to quit supporting this sport 😒
Yesterday we had an assessment visit & can now offer young people work experience and Duke of Edinburgh volunteering.
We have our first young person lined up and we look forward to welcoming her to the team for a week in June.

@InnovationMatt My partner was made redundant, was unemployed for 6 months. Worked a year and made redundant again. This time out of work 12 months. He's now left the sector completely. Has job security and way less stress.
A great turn out for our first workshop at W.Ave Arts in St Leonard's. We managed to recycle two cardboard boxes, three newspapers, and a pile of paper scraps.

@ClimateDad77 In a public meeting about the need for coastal defences recently, yet the vast majority of residents attending didn't understand coastal drift or natural coastal erosion 😣😳 how can we do anything with such lacking education 🤔
