“Cultural capital” - often misunderstood and misquoted but hugely significant for future life opportunities including what A Level subjects, which uni and which job.

There are substantial socio-economic differences in access to extra-curricular activities, and these gaps may have widened significantly as a result of the pandemic.

It's crucial that life skills play an important part in education recovery.

“In maths, you’re twice as likely to not get a pass in a poorer area than a rich area.

What is education activist @muzoonrakan1's message for today's students? "To feel lucky and to believe that education is the only way for them to achieve their goals in their lives"

Opening words from @russellhobby @TeachFirstNE It’s the people inside the system that make the difference. We must look after them. #teacher5aday #wellbeing #peoplepower

Looking at how pupils acquire word knowledge and some of the potential challenges of doing so. Made me think of @MaryMyatt ‘s session on the difference in the number of words pupils hear. #TBCtraining #phdchat #phdlife

@MaryMyatt refocuses us on #Oracy - disadvantaged pupils have 30 millions fewer words and how can we write about it if we can’t talk about it? #rEDBrum @researchED1
