It has been a real struggle getting the 2 staff I have in breakfast club currently. Additional hours, facilities, costs, space… it’s another thing to worry about, much as I appreciate the intent.

Thanks. It’s hanging on to that clarity with all the other stuff!

I don’t have one at my current school, but I’ve never known a SBM on SLT. Is that common?

Elon Musk openly called for violence on our streets yesterday.

I hope politicians from all parties come together to condemn his deeply dangerous and irresponsible rhetoric.

Britain must stand united against this clear attempt to undermine our democracy.

NOTHING will prepare you for this 45-second story arc. From "I'm just doing this because I love the flag, it's totally grassroots, and I'm not part of anything political"... to who actually gave him the flags the night before.

Anyone who believes it is an innocent movement needs to see this.

"I spoke with a Midlands-based Reform UK candidate. Instead of trying to convince me to support the party by discussing its manifesto policies and ability to govern, he took another approach: he told me that the UN were sneaking ‘military-aged’ migrants into asylum hotels"

Why on earth do the Tories want to keep people locked into high energy bills? And, come to that, why is the BBC citing Reform but saying nothing about climate science or renewable alternatives?
Complete madness - except for the fossil fuel industry of course

Tories pledge to get 'all our oil and gas out of the North Sea'

The government warns Kemi Badenoch's plans would "only accelerate the worsening climate crisis".
