I hate to be that person, but just imagine a school that was getting Ofsteded this week, in July, so close to the end of term, in a heatwave, after half of staff and students being up all night on Sunday. And after a Yr6 Transition Evening last night. Imagine that. So, whose school might that be...? #Education #ukeducation #SecondaryEducation #Ofsted #edutoot #Edutooters

Yes, we need to provide more support for young people to stay in education and/or get jobs. But, if your first reflex is better 'tracking' you are focused on counting and not on changing anything substantive to achieve your goal: theguardian.com/money/2026/jul…? #UKeducation #neet
Ministers call for better tracking of teenagers at risk of dropping out of work or training in England
Councils and schools urged to do more as figures show there is no information on whereabouts of 32,100 ‘Neets’Richard Partington (the Guardian)
Just a massive congratulations to anyone in education - both staff and students - who got through this week in the UK. What a week. And with so, so much anti-teacher rhetoric in the media and online. We did our best. ☀️ #Teaching #SecondaryTeaching #Education #EduTooters #UKEducation
When English people learn about history in schools they do the Norman conquest, Tudors and Stuarts*, possibly the “Industrial Revolution” and then World War 1 and World War 2.
It struck me that learning about Tudors and Stuarts (actually they just learn about one Stuart: James I) without mentioning the fact that the second Stuart ended up getting beheaded in a revolution is crazy.
It’d be like learning about the reigns of the last of the Russian Tzars without mentioning the October Revolution. Or studying Louis XIV, XV etc without discussing how France was soon to be a republic.
