So these are vapes. NOT highlighters. highlightvape.com/products/o… What practical reason is there for these being made to look like stationery? Is it to fool teachers/parents/carers? To entice young people? This is wrong.

Late to the party, but Ed Sec with no experience, again? WTH. Why does no one value who does this role?

Spot on @kitmalthouse. Working in education is a privilege, but you join a system on its knees - overstretched, underfunded and crying out for support. After 4 false starts we need help, and quickly, to deliver what we all want - world class education We’re ready for change.

Typically, the pivotal role of Education secretary hasn’t been announced alongside the cabinet. Why am I not surprised?
This is bloody ridiculous. We are about to get our 5th Secretary of State for Education in a year! How can schools get anything done against this constant flip-flopping. Educational policy should be set by a separate body that outlasts these constant changes in leadership🤬

In today’s economic revolution, I have switched the hot water timer off to match the heating timer (that has been off since April) all because my bill is in excess of £300 pcm already and I live in a bog-standard 3bed. #noshowers

Meanwhile this horror chart from @jrf_uk shows that next year the poorest 20% of single adults will have to spend 120% of income after housing on energy bills, if there's no Govt help. Almost two thirds for single parents. jrf.org.uk/press/stratospher…

This is such a powerful video… So simple So much sense The Tories know this too But they also know that it’s the millionaires & billionaires who donate to them that keep them in power …and the sad truth is, that’s who they really work for.

I wholly advocate this. Speaking as a single salary household, we also need the threshold to be fairly high.

‘This [food poverty] is the single biggest challenge schools will face. More and more children will turn up to school hungry. It will go well beyond the definition of free school meals now,’ says @JonnyUttley theguardian.com/business/202…

Fears of widespread child hunger spark calls for universal free school meals in UK

Teachers and charities say free meals needed for all state pupils as 800,000 children in poverty do not qualify
