@ReissOmari @BhamColmore Disgraceful

We’ve hit rock bottom here guys, unfortunately I can’t see Colmore Row ever getting back to its pristine state, not even 2 years, hundreds of thousands pounds was spent to repave and we now have THREE separate sections of paving stones replaced with tarmac. @BhamColmore

@tes Can anyone explain to me what the benefits of this would be and they how they would outweigh the benefits of what we currently gain with setting?

Imagine if setting was outlawed in schools: MAT leader David Hatchett argues that this would improve both students' outcomes and teachers' skills tes.com/magazine/leade…

@CleanBham21 @B25dave Well done 👏🏻

Myself and another volunteer attempted to clean an alleyway recently mentioned by Birmingham live. (St Thomas road off of Slade road birmingham) we’ve done 10 bags ✅ we hope to return with a stronger workforce in quantities 😊 #clean #streets #litterpicking #twitter

@blaiklockBP @Conservatives @UKLabour How much military equipment, staff, development could have been implemented instead of the laughing stock HS2 project?

Britain: Can't build a new runway. Hasn't got any warships. Can't control its borders. Can't stop terrorists. Can't count its population. Bankrupt, corrupt, dirty, and violent. Thanks @Conservatives Thanks @UKLabour

Keir Starmer never wanted a grooming gangs inquiry. It's why his planned inquiry is set to be a sham. But we can make him reveal the full truth about these horrific crimes. More than 18,000 people have already told him that they want the truth. Here's how you can help 👇

We are sending our kids to school to memorize facts that AI can retrieve in 0.3 seconds. We're grading them on essays that AI writes better than their teachers. We're preparing them for jobs that won't exist by the time they graduate. The entire education system is training humans to compete with machines at what machines do best. That's not education. That's sabotage. The schools that survive will teach thinking, not memorizing. Creating, not repeating. Discerning, not obeying. Every other school is a museum that doesn't know it yet.

@DoctorLemma What an amazing role model to her son

A single mother in the United Kingdom surprised her young son with the keys to their very first house after spending eight years living in a small council flat. Charmaine Hinchen had spent years working late nights to save up for a proper home in the West Midlands. She constantly told her son Leo about the importance of working hard to achieve their shared dream of finally having a backyard garden to play in and enough space to invite his friends over for sleepovers. When she finally secured a house, she kept the news a complete secret.

@RogersHistory Just look at Arthur Terry Learning Trust

What are the key reasons ppl are against academisation for schools?

We Are Failing A Generation of Kids! Delighted to see such a big piece in The Guardian today detailing my thoughts about the growing use of screens in our children's lives. Over the past decade, childhood has fundamentally changed. Many young people are now spending significant portions of their lives in digital environments designed to capture and hold their attention. It is so clear to many healthcare professionals that this rapid increase in screen time is having a devastating effect on the health and wellbeing of our children. There are multiple potential issues including anxiety, depression, worsening eyesight, visual problems and lower quality sleep. Another concern of mine is that these devices (especially social media use) train distraction.  Everything good in our lives comes from our ability to be present - our relationships, self worth and contentment. We are failing our kids. Our job is to protect them and put safeguards in place like we do with gambling and pornography. Successive governments have been weak and allowed tech companies to decide what is best for our kids. A few weeks ago, there was hope that a social media ban for under 16s would be forthcoming in the UK but, unfortunately, it seems as though the current government are trying to stall this with another 'consultation'. This has been going on for far too long. We already know enough. How many more kids need to be negatively impacted before action is taken. It is time the politicians acted and did what we expect them to do - protect the wellbeing of our children. This is not about blame. Teachers and parents are struggling and need the government to help. As @JonHaidt eloquently says, this is a collective action problem. We are in the middle of a widespread social experiment that no one consciously signed up for. And it is our kids who are paying the price. What do you think? Do you think we should ban social media for under 16s? What about the rapid increase of screen use in schools? I'd love to hear your perspective below!

@jasonsfolly What a great film and amazing storyline. Really enjoyed it 👍🏻

Lucky to be in this stylish, disturbing and beautiful film. Find it if you can. If you've ever loved a little too much.

@J_Panzoo @BCFC What a debut too!

Buzzing to make my debut for @BCFC , unlucky with the result but something to build on! Fans were top! #KRO 💙

@lufcMM0 Great game today and you lot were in good voice too.

I'm actually a big fan of Birmingham though. That ground when it's bouncing is one of my personal favourites and you just know if they come up it'll be a complete pain in the arse for teams to go too and win. Good cup tie and I hope they come up. #BCFC #lufc

@Britpopmemories @TheBluetones @TheQuill Genuinely one of my favourite albums. Every song 10/10

🚨Big Britpop Anniversary alert🚨 On this day 30 years ago The Bluetones released their debut album “Expecting To Fly”. It famously knocked Oasis off the top of the album chart and is considered by many to be one of the finest British debut albums of all time.

@ctb76 Nothing, as far as i'm aware. Regulation can seem very lax Stories coming my way at the moment seem endless.

@warwickmansell Hi Warwick, With these stories seemingly becoming more and more regular what are the DoE planning on doing to stop it happening again?
