Totally agree. It’s possibly the worst advert I’ve ever seen for anything. Would actively dissuade me from going to @JohnLewisRetail - what on earth were they thinking?

I collected the old NAHT Mansfield & District President's medal from a member this week. It's a reminder of how far the NAHT has come in recent years, from its roots as a professional association to the campaigning trade union we are today. Ofsted take note...

Can you hear us Ofsted? NAHT's online town hall members meeting is taking place with over 2,500 frustrated school leaders attending to hear our General Secretary Paul Whiteman and President Angi Gibson set out NAHT's concerns with Ofsted's response to the consultation @NAHTnews

“Today’s statistics are the catastrophic legacy of the last government’s failure to get a grip on the crisis in SEND. Despite soaring costs and more children being identified as having additional needs, school funding has remained largely static in real terms." @PaulWhiteman6 comments on NAO's report warning the SEND system is broken.

[Rob Smith @robsmith919]

What a positive message to international students from Bridget Phillipson.

Fantastic turnout in Cheltenham for the #RightToStrike rally

#MinimumServiceLevels is such a fundamental attack on the right to strike, we have to take a stand.

So proud of @CymruNAHT @NAHTnews members and colleagues from across the TU movement ✊🏻

It’s clear that the profession are the only ones who are left to fight for the heart and soul of education.

To those who have not yet had the chance to vote, please stand shoulder to shoulder with your @NAHTnews colleagues and vote today ✅

In the VAT & Fiddle pub this evening and saw this sign which seemed appropriate for all sorts of reasons.

[rob kelsall @rob_kelsall]

With severe disruption in our post service, its vital we get those ballot papers back in the post!

#TimeForAction #YesAndYes

[NAHT @NAHTnews]

We know some members are worried about voting 'yes' to strike action, but even with a 'yes' vote we cannot envisage circumstances where we instigate action that will require them to close schools.

This statement from our general secretary, @PaulWhiteman6, explains more.

At NAHT Official Conference in Nottingham today. If the government think school leaders are not serious about taking action on pay and funding they are in for a shock! @NAHTnews
