We are proud of our Support Staff in Leeds and they deserve to be treated by everyone in a way that shows how valuable they are. @bphillipsonMP our members need politicians who support them and understand their needs. Their needs can begin to be addressed on the SSSNB.

Agree with @bphillipsonMP We have 63,000 (and rising) Support Staff members who deserve an unmediated voice in the SSSNB.

The WASPI women deserve to be compensated. I'm not down with the "they're boomers so its ok" Aim higher. For the affordable housing, the free education etc. of "their day" We should oppose the rising pension age, with flatlining (declining in places) life expectancy.

This is absolutely unacceptable. School budgets are stretched to breaking after 14 years of cuts. This will damage children's education. #PayUp #ValueEducation #InvestInEducation educationhub.blog.gov.uk/202…

Come and support Notre Dame Sixth Form Picketers tomorrow from 7.30. At 12.00 ND picketers will join their colleagues from Yorkshire & Humber and the NW to rally outside Rachel Reeves constituency office in Bramley, to demand pay justice.

An unfunded pay award will mean 99% of secondary schools will have to make cuts. To be clear, the last labour PM to get schools to make cuts was Callaghan. If we want economic growth we need to invest in "education, education, education".

Today's GDP figures are disappointing. However, I'm determined to turn the economy around so it works for working people once again. That's why we are building 1.5 million homes, creating the National Wealth Fund and reforming our pensions market to make Britain better off.

A pleasure to welcome the new Tory education team to their places, though I'm afraid to say they haven't learned much since their election rout. Still shirking responsibility. Still out of touch. Still on the side of a privileged few.

What does it look like when you put a whole bunch of @NEUnion trade union organisers, from Black, Disabled, LGBT+ and Women’s sectors together…in one space…in Manchester? Twitter, it looks like this.

Fantastic win for the #AbolishOfsted campaign to start the new school year with - @Ofstednews single-word grades will be scrapped. This is a hugely welcome development and recognition that we need a new system that is supportive, effective and fair. bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c4gv…

Ofsted: Keir Starmer says scrapping one-word grades will not confuse parents

The immediate changes mean schools in England will no longer be rated Outstanding or Inadequate.

Our very own @RichardBurgon taking a stance on improving SEND education. Ensure your MP is there by writing to them. We must improve the state of SEND provision in our schools.

🚨 NEW: We’re scrapping single headline Ofsted judgements with immediate effect. Ofsted judgements have been high stakes for schools, low information for parents. We’ll: ✅ Give parents more transparency ✅ Drive high & rising standards ✅ Pave the way for school report cards
