Me - It’s your bed
7 - For me?
Me - Yes, for you
7 - All night? Until morning?

I’ve seen a confidential document from Lynton Crosby’s lobbying firm which advises Boris Johnson to ride roughshod over every convention and standard of propriety to pack the House of Lords.

I'm with this 95%.
Son is in Year 6.
Scrap Sats! @TheGreenParty say so too.
💥New research!
Parents, heads, teachers and children agree: SATs this year are NOT helping learning.

DfE please take this down. You do not know the situation for 24360 schools in England. You are not working in them. You are not caring for families who have concerns. You can not make this decision. We have already made the decision that is best for our community.
With parents looking forward to attending their child's upcoming nativity, play or concert, we explain why these festive events can go ahead this year.

💉Many teachers and school staff had their last vaccination 5 months ago.
😟Their immunity is waning, just as we enter the most risky time of teaching in stuffy, unventilated classrooms.
😡Teachers and educators will not be offered the booster as they 'are not frontline staff'!
Solidarity from @TheGreenParty @GreenEdPolicy you put up a tremendous fight. #notoforcedacademisation

If the government were serious about home learning during lockdown, they would have hired strings of experts in our fields - writers, scientists, historians, geographers etc and got us to talk directly on zoom to different ages of students for 20-30 minute chunks.
Well done NEU! WEMBLEY MATTERS: NEU launch 'Help A Child to Learn' campaign alongside the Daily Mirror with an initial £1million donation wembleymatters.blogspot.com/…

They have been encouraged in that by DfE messaging this week; however, under union pressure, the DfE has now been forced to revise its guidance.
The DfE now says: Critical worker parents and caters should keep their children at home if they can.

Change of DfE guidance
I’m hearing from people, who COULD work from home, being told by their boss that they MUST tell their child’s school that they are a critical worker
These employers are behaving irresponsibly in the face of the huge numbers of Covid cases.

Another Victory. @TheGreenParty has a long-standing policy for the abolition of SATs and for a broad curriculum rather than high-stakes testing that narrows the curriculum. #morethanascore
