STRB 5.5% award a major surprise (assuming true) as last govt went so hard on affordability. Can't remember pay review bodies diverging so sharply from govt steers on affordability. This is more difficult for new govt than is being recognised. 1/n

Nearly three-quarters of headteachers say they will have to increase class sizes over the next 12 months because of insufficient funding. ASCL survey published today. We call on all political parties to address the funding crisis. #EducationMatters bit.ly/3XhiUqs

This is formal but here goes. The family of Sir Tim Brighouse are very sad to announce that Tim died in the John Radcliffe Hospital today after a short illness. He was a loving husband, father, grandfather and great grandfather and a towering figure in the word of education. 1/

"We’ve failed to look after our headteachers. We’ve failed to give them anywhere near what they need to do their jobs effectively. We’ve heaped more and more on them regardless. And then we’ve sent in inspectors to pick them apart" Today's @tes briefing⬇️ tes.com/magazine/analy…
