I’ve never been prouder to be a Bristolian. “I’ve read about your story... You sound like a badass. I am an artist... I’ve made some work about the migrant crisis... I can’t keep the money. Could you use it to buy a new boat... let me know... Banksy.” theguardian.com/world/2020/aug…

If you're in tears about your A Level results - here's where you register to vote. The one thing you've got on your side is time. You'll be alive for decades after the people who presided over this mess: gov.uk/register-to-vo…

In terms both of the sheer number of students affected, and of the crushing unhappiness and life-changing consequences of each individual case, the A Level results fiasco is the clearest proof yet of this government's frivolous incompetence.

If I had done A levels in 2020 there's no way I'd have been able to go to university, as there's no way this system would have predicted the grades I got. Exams allow disadvantaged kids to overcome school's and society's low expectations. This is unjust. theguardian.com/education/2020…

These magical autochromes were taken 107 years ago at Lulworth Cove in Dorset, in August 1913 - less than a year before The Great War. They were taken by Lieutenant Colonel Mervyn O’Gorman and show the young Christina Bevan (1897-1981). They are original colour & not colourised.

Yesterday, I received this email from a Year 11. Amazing young man. And he’s okayed me sharing it. I honestly think the message is too important not to. I’ll let his words do the talking. (Had me in tears! 😭). #Edutwitter #LGBTQ #Pride

Somebody clever, not me, decided there were 2 sorts of leaders. Baboons, who grab power for its own sake and for what they can personally get out of it and elephants, who lead for the benefit of the whole group.

@FosterPartners have been sharing some fantastic assets to keep children busy and inspire them during lockdown... here’s the paper skyscraper template 😀

Unstructured play helps children explore the world around them. #earlychildhood #learning

I've written to Boris Johnson calling for emergency support for people affected by the coronavirus epidemic, including rent deferrals and mortgage holidays, higher statutory sick pay from day one, and income protection for insecure, low-paid and self-employed workers.

@EarlsfieldSch I love this 💖

Welcome to Miss Ockwell, our new art teacher! The children have been learning about the work of British artist Julian Opie. They have used his technique to simplify their own self-portraits and are creating their own outcomes for a whole school collaborative display.
