We have all seen the toll that Ofsted inspections can take. Current inspections are unsafe and regularly cause mental health issues for teachers.

The new reforms are simply not good enough – our members do not have any confidence that this will change. It’s time for radical reform.

Israel is still committing genocide in Gaza.

Since the ceasefire deal & US President Donald Trump’s ‘peace’ deal were agreed, Israel has killed 100 Palestinians, blocked aid and destroyed more homes.

It's no surprise – the deals are deeply flawed and leave Israel’s power unchecked.

If history teaches us one thing
Never trust a man who would be king
Who seeks all power for himself
To burnish his prestige and wealth

And a nation born in revolution
Should know this offers no solution
For there can be no liberty
Where one man rules with impunity

Someone left a rack full of inflatable costumes near the ICE building in Portland.

I love this town.

This is a wonderful thread that explains how & why Portland is Like This.

I think we really should stop using antifa and just fully say anti-fascist and get them saying they are against anti fascism. Using antifa is giving them some distance and I genuinely think some of their base don’t even know that’s what it stands for.

If we send our learners the message that we're not going to read their work, we're basically telling them the outcome is all that matters, not the process. And they might as well use AI to do the work themselves then. Assessing work is how we get to know our learners.
