Interesting @tes piece on the outrageous lack of transparency of the DfE's Regional Director system for deciding which orgs get control of schools. But where are the community/parent voices, pointing out its lack of answerability to service users? tes.com/magazine/news/…
I grew up with 4 brothers, have 5 nephews, taught boys for most of my years as a teacher and I’ve worked with homeless young men. Loved every minute @CatherineECarr’s #AboutTheBoys @BBCRadio4 - Tender, funny and moving. So much more to boys than hoodies and bad boy headlines.

No school should be allowed to exclude children on grounds of parental faith or 'ability'. Comprehensive schools serve every child with differences handled within schools, not between classes of school. Great piece by @simonjenkins4 @comp_future theguardian.com/commentisfree/…
I’m ashamed of this
Some (not all) faith schools have problematic admission policies that exclude local children. So is this the right move? “Such a change in policy feels inappropriate so close to an election and is something that should be incorporated into a manifesto.” theguardian.com/education/2024…
Yes, recent @suttontrust report highlighted how many selective faith schools come at the top of the socially selective league table.

Ofsted must be reformed. Parents know it, school staff know it, Labour knows it. A Labour government would end headline grades and introduce new report cards. When will the Tories finally follow Labour’s lead in the interest of parents, pupils and staff?

All the evidence shows that setting by ability has no impact on improving attainment yet England boasts higher rates of in-school segregation than any other developed country. And we also think it's ok to use segregation by 11+ @comp_future tes.com/magazine/teach…
“This is not the time for more delays and lip service. It is time to act, to save lives, and create a system in which parents and teachers can have confidence.” Solidarity with the family of Ruth Perry and shame on this Government.✊
It is simply not good enough for the Secretary of State to be told by a parliamentary inquiry that the DfE “and Ofsted should work together as a priority to develop an alternative to the current single-word overall judgement” and to completely ignore the direction…
I’ve read the government’s response to the Select Committee’s Inquiry into Ofsted’s Work with Schools, and it is the most pathetic excuse for can-kicking inaction I have ever seen. It is an absence of a response, a vacuum of responsibility, a void of accountability…
This is an appalling decision from the Government. Teachers deserve a supportive accountability process and parents deserve more than one word. We need to radically rethink how Ofsted operates.

@InfoRightsJames @nualaburgess @PrivateEyeNews @antiacademies So when the Tories claim they're spending more than ever on education they're probably right but clearly the question has to be asked...... where's it going!! Who's profiting!

A big thank you to all those voting @PompeyLabour today in Nelson and Stamshaw. Your support is very much welcome. If you haven't voted yet, don't forget your I.D. and that polling stations close at 10pm 😁
It's concerning that the DfE is proposing to remove the 50% cap on faith admissions. If implemented, more children will be excluded from attending their local school. DfE would like to hear your views: consult.education.gov.uk/faith-schools-…
Some (not all) faith schools have problematic admission policies that exclude local children. So is this the right move? “Such a change in policy feels inappropriate so close to an election and is something that should be incorporated into a manifesto.” theguardian.com/education/2024…
@comp_future When the uk is working hard to overcome diversion why do we need to segregate children whose only contact with other children of not their own faith maybe at school ?

Yes, recent @suttontrust report highlighted how many selective faith schools come at the top of the socially selective league table.

Pleased to support the Ofsted ‘Alternative Big Listen ‘ launched today. Please do make some time to respond.
It took some deep soul searching but proud to have launched thealternativebiglisten.co.uk today. A chance for a broader view of inspection and one that has the support of many educationalists. Proud that Prof Julia Waters supports it.
Despicable.
@Helengunter10 I have read in Times that they are also negotiating with Armenia to send asylum seekers here, too, as part of Rwanda plan :(
Seems as if academisation is premised on economies of scale. LEAs used to have such economies of scale, and were accountable to education professionals and the local electorate. MATs are only accountable to the DfE. Lets return education services to local democratic control!
And the obvious question? Why did so many small trusts and standalone academies believe the ideologues when they spouted their nonsense about academisation bringing greater freedoms? schoolsweek.co.uk/small-academy-…
@bphillipsonMP It needs root and branch reform. Education is complex. UK inspection system is brutal and immature. Professionals do not need to be bullied but engage in TQM, conversations/actions that move everyone forward.
