@bennorris82 @learningatceo @LeadSW100 This is such wonderful news! I went to this school and my parents still live in the catchment. To know that this school will be taken forward to support these children reach their potential is so wonderful. Well done. I can’t wait to see what you do!

First half term completed @torbridgehigh and it has been the most rewarding 6 weeks I can ever have dreamed of. It’s truly a privilege to serve this school. A school with heart, soul and ambition. I’m excited for the half term break but I’m even more exited to get back ❤️

@Smscallchin @AidanSevers Half it, half it again, and then divide it by 3

‘These are the top 20 universities for social mobility in England, according to our research with the Institute for Fiscal Studies 📈

Each university has a ‘mobility score’, based on how many disadvantaged students get in, and how well they do after graduation.

The report provides the clearest picture yet on the role of higher education in social mobility ⤵️’ @suttontrust

If I was worried about people comparing me to 1930s Germany, my next move probably wouldn't be to shut down all criticism on the national broadcasting service

[Shelley Walker @SWALKERDHT]

If you’ve read about ‘that’ advert today then read about their expectations. Mandating behaviour as far saying that their students can’t visit shops or local amenities on the way to and from school? I really just don’t get it. Can someone explain the rationale?

Hannah is sick of the UK so she’s going to move her family abroad for a better life. But don’t get her started on migrants coming over here…

@VCargs @EnserMark @Ofstednews Thanks @VCargs x

Why does British Gas - who’s profits are up by 700% - go to the courts for warrants to break into the homes of the poorest (in the middle of a cost-of-living crisis) & then force-fit prepayment meters, which leave their customers cold & unable to cook? What drives that behaviour?

WHY is this even a question? Have all of what? Because if the question is ability to do the job exceptionally well but awareness and humility to know when it’s time to move on then yes, they can. Something perhaps other politicians should work on ‘having’. #everydaysexism

Really @BBCWorld we’re still doing this are we? 🙄 #everydaysexism #sexism
