Since the student protest at #PimlicoAcademy on 30th March, there has been a lot of media coverage about the alleged motivations of the students. Here are some of the headlines:

there's a particular inhumanity and cruelty in slicing and portioning off things as basic as fruit, vegetables and cheese. as if to say, not only do we not trust you enough to give you the money to buy food, but we don't even trust you with the food.
BEA are taking time from social media between 18 Dec - 5 Jan. We remain thankful for the interest, love and support in our collaborative work shown by so many. Our commitment to transforming education remains. Take time, stay safe and we look forward to connecting in 2021. ✊🏽❤️
We continue to stand firm. @CARE2Liberate + @BlackEdAllies theguardian.com/education/2020…

BIG NEWS!!! CARE & Black Educators Alliance have launched legal proceedings against the DfE's recent guidelines to schools - we won't be silenced & erased! theguardian.com/education/2020… Pls support our action - share & donate: crowdjustice.com/case/liberate-… #LiberateOurClassrooms #donate
The government's attempt this week to slip sections into RSE guidance which would ban popular anti-racist movements from the classroom and force a one-sided politics on our children is deeply worrying. This initiative may prove to be very signifiant: theguardian.com/education/2020…

there's a particular inhumanity and cruelty in slicing and portioning off things as basic as fruit, vegetables and cheese. as if to say, not only do we not trust you enough to give you the money to buy food, but we don't even trust you with the food.
@mikaimikai_ Check out @LeadingRoutes! You must take great care in finding your PhD supervisory team. Everyone needs help with this.
As the UK government seeks to ban teaching of Britain's history of militarism and colonialism, it's more important than ever to support critical educators. Check out @CARE2Liberate and @BlackEdAllies
Further to this, the current ITE pathways need a 21st century overhaul in order to be fit for purpose, fit for a pluralistic society. If the current ITE pathways were products for sale on a supermarket shelf, I would not buy them. @IRR_News @HEPI_news @NEUBlackWorkers
Essential reading for all educators. The criminalisation of Black youths starts in our nurseries and schools. When you train teachers to avoid and ignore race, the damage done to the young Black psyche is immeasurable. @NEUBlackWorkers @IRR_News @HEPI_news
It was a privilege to speak to @WarwickLabour this evening, to welcome freshers and to talk about the fiasco that has been the reopening of universities. Students are owed so much better than this shambolic, cruel and callous Tory Government.
We are changing the things we can no longer accept👊🏼👊🏽❤️
The Government's decision to ban the use of teaching materials related to left-wing political groups is an unacceptable erosion of free speech. I welcome @CARE2Liberate's legal challenge against it. theguardian.com/education/2020…
The change has to come from within, but we are changing - and agitating until we get what is right and just.....know that!
