#rED25 @nickpointer_ (excuse the rushed sketch!) expertly developed the argument behind the question Is Consistency Killing Us? Super development of thinking.

It’s been a couple of years since @NPorter_ , founder of @unlockedgrads, called to ask why prisoners didn’t have access to Oak’s lessons. A fair challenge, it spurred work with the brilliant digital team at @MoJGovUK to roll out our resources across youth & adult prison estates

MPs voted this week to scrap the tax breaks handed to private schools. The money will instead go to supporting the 93% of kids who go to state schools. Yet Reform MPs voted to keep this tax break for the privileged few. Remember that when they pretend to be on your side.
