Shreya is an excellent candidate and would work hard to listen to and represent local people. #VoteLabour #VoteNanda
Pens, pencil cases, books taken home and used for homework and revision. Every child can do this given the right support. Agree it’s about believing and having high expectations for every young person.
Got no patience for the "just give them a pen" crew.
Teacher's Standard #1 is literally to set high expectations.
If you lower the bar on something as obvious and non-controversial as "having the right equipment" it's a big old red flag for other stuff.

If you’re not watching turn @ITV on now or catch up. I’ve read about the #PostOfficeScandal but individual stories are unbelievable and lack of accountability .. 😡 @RichardMoorhead has written much on the subject
Diolch @jasonmohammad Goose bumps.
This Christmas - treat yourself and watch one of the greatest Christmas messages of all time.
What a voice. Am lais.

Two reasons to encourage people to get out of cars and on to public transport, or to walk or cycle #climatechange
Air pollution is being linked to a rise in antibiotic resistance.
A stark reminder of the dangers to public health caused by air pollution, and the urgent need to tackle it.

Great to discuss @UKLabour #education policy tonight with @adamboxer1 & @physics_jamie . Thanks for inviting me Tom. @bphillipsonMP hope you can listen 🤞🏼#knowledge #arts #educhat #edutwitter
Great and detailed discussion tonight with @adamboxer1 @Mari_Williams and @physics_jamie around recent Labour Education Policy announcements, here is the podcast version to listen back to at your leisure (also available through all good pod platforms) podbean.com/eas/pb-2hcez-145…
I became a teacher in 1999 because Labour promised to prioritise education. I saw the difference a Labour govt made and know it will again. #Educationfest @bphillipsonMP
My Labour government will make sure the education system prepares young people for work and life.
Our mission will break down the barriers to opportunity at every stage to build a better Britain.

Skills and education are key to building our economy. Great campaign @prafulnargund
Today starts #NAW2023 , but take-up of apprenticeships has declined over the last decade.
Young people are losing out on opportunities, & the economy isn't getting needed skills.
Which is why I'm launching my #SkillsRevolution campaign👉🏾prafulnargund.co.uk
#SkillsforLife
