If you think magic moments should be taken away over this, you're not a football fan. Bollocks to VAR and any tool who defends it.

NorfolkNEU Tim Bale Absolutely 100% agree with this. Most people have zero idea of the number of school kids who are vaping & addicted & the educational & social impact

50K+ a year and 30% minimum PPA. That's what's needed to start to sort teaching out. Full backing for teachers and schools on behaviour would be next. Stop spending money on think tanks, surveys, reports, OFSTED, bursaries, schemes and speeches. Just do this.

Dentists have seen through the spin.

Empty soundbites won’t stop queues outside practices.

Dodgy statistics won’t call time on ‘DIY’ dentistry.

Don’t let the Government send the nation’s oral health back in time.

Another day, another post from a teacher mum on mat leave being made to feel unnecessarily stressed and vulnerable by unsympathetic, and ill-informed school leader in a life unfriendly school. Any wonder we have a retention issue in education? 😡 #motherhoodpenalty

🇷🇼The Government has spent £500m not sending any refugees to Rwanda.

💷Double what they spending trying to ‘restore’ NHS dentistry (though most of it isn’t even ‘new’ money).

🦷This service won’t survive without fair funding and real reform.

Time to post this (obvious-to-any-actual-teacher) info nugget again:

Teachers can’t run 1-1 therapy sessions in mainstream classrooms after every behaviour incident AND still teach stuff.
