A support group for educators from the Global Majority to share and support each other with work related challenges

[Alison Kriel 💚 @AKLondon UpScrolled @AlisonKriel]

It’s my absolute honour and privilege to be on the @PodSlt #InternationalWomenDay2025 special ‘Accelerated Action: Women Leading Change in Education’

The majority of educators are women but male voices dominate

Once upon a time, not that long ago, ALL UK university’s were fully funded and no-one paid.

It’s still like that in Scotland.

[Emily-Grace Folorunsho @MissFolorunsho]

When the opportunity arose to teach abroad, I leapt at the chance. However, trading my Head of Department title to classroom teacher was no simple transition. My pride had to take a backseat as I embraced a new history department culture.

This post may also benefit those that…

Remarkable allegations about the 2017 general election:

A senior pollster has today said YouGov suppressed a poll showing a significant victory to Corbyn in a debate "because it was too positive about Labour" and that senior Tories put pressure on the company in the campaign 1/2

[Nick Lowles @lowles_nick]

This is the British far right. Police have lost control. We feared this would happen. Fifteen minutes to 11am on Armistice Day. Absolute disgrace

Thank you @SuellaBraverman - your dog whistle rhetoric made mine, and other people’s day at @LondonWaterloo extremely frightening. Your words have inspired racists to terrorise us and make it harder for @metpoliceuk to do their job today. You need to resign, NOW #ThankYouSuella

It's #InternationalDayofEducation and a chance to celebrate the power and lasting impact that each and every educator can have.

Have the Beeb done anything on Zahawi tax affairs and Braverman exchange yet? Or are they both in the Michelle Mone drawer?

[Marina Purkiss @MarinaPurkiss]

The silence from @BBCNews on Nadhim Zahawi is deafening…

[Parody Nigel Farage @Parody_PM]

In case anyone is wondering why Nadhim Zahawi isn't being prosecuted for tax fraud, it's simply that there is one rule for us and another for everyone else. Hope that clarifies the situation.

On social media, it becomes easy to compare your successes with what you see others share.

But a celebratory post doesn't show their journey, through all the same highs and lows that we all face.

We love celebrating every kind of success - no matter how big or small!

[Alison Kriel 💚 @AKLondon UpScrolled @AlisonKriel]

My conversations with @rondelle10_b are always amazing - she's wise, funny, and ambitious. Our chat on the #FlyingHighPodcast is no exception. Have a listen

This is how #ChildQ will rise. What she is asking for means that her experience will never happen to another child and I applaud her for growing through her Trauma to action for the greater good
