Well done to @victoriacrooks.bsky.social and @lauralondo1017.bsky.social for continuing to raise this important issue of equity
Thank you to @jasminenorden.bsky.social for covering this story.
@htenuk.bsky.social members support a number of #primaryteacher s & #historyteacher s experiencing real financial hardship due to the decision to not provide a subsistence bursary to all #ITT students. Equity of access matters.

Pleased to see our @htenuk.bsky.social call for minimum bursary payments for all #ITT students gaining some attention. Equity of access to the profession is important for the health of our education system.
