It has been the honour of my life representing the people of Renfrewshire North and West. However, I have tonight informed local members that I will not be seeking re-election in the 2026 Scottish Parliament election.

Please invest as early as possible, not just at school age, allowing children to be supported and strategies embedded by the early years workforce is crucial in their little lives & avoiding larger issues at school.
Accounts Commission@AccCommScot

Reviewing how mainstream and special education is provided to meet current and future additional support needs and demands is urgent. Councils and @scotgov must work with pupils, parents, and carers and staff on this. Joint report with @AuditorGenScot: bit.ly/Additional_Sup…

We need to acknowledge the true value of early intervention & invest in the Early Years, including parental support and the workforce.
Dr. Aaron Bradbury@AaronTeamEC

@StephenMorganMP Early help is key and it’s positive to see investment being done here. I’m still on the fence about school based nurseries as we can’t see that as the only answer but let’s try and work together. That’s what it should be about

ft.com/content/3b561a… I don't believe Scotlands accounts will be any more transparent.Given what we saw at the recent Edinburgh Council Education meetin. This has been raised to SG, Audit Scotland, COSLA and Public Spending Ombudsman, yet sadly nothing gets done. @NatalieDon_

Modern Parenting: Evolution or Fad? I was a parent in the 80s and 90s when “to parent” was not a verb. Nowadays, parenting is a thing. It has various names such as gentle parenting, but has this made us better parents? Read more in my new blog: leyf.org.uk/news/modern-pa…

Totally, they must invest & value the Early Years professionals & we wouldn't have as many poor children suffering with self regulation & resilience. It's a partnership with families from pre birth. We see it before Health Visitors do. @CalumRoss23 @NatalieDon_ @_MWhitfield

@TheScotsman @CalumRoss23 The real question is…why are the numbers of kids with special needs soaring? What’s at the root of that statistic? That’s where government should be focusing, not simply treating a symptom🤷‍♂️

Reasuring to read, we have said for a long time that Local Government need to be held accountable and have clearer transparency

But making them accountable and clearer transparency on their spending is crucial. Far too many budgets have been mis spent, and Councils blame government rather than themselves
G-O-I@TheGophergod

@CalumRoss23 Why is this not a bigger story. Withholding cash from councils won't help education

It is high time Government took serious control over council spending, and scrutinised their budgets to make them accountable for spending public money on best value and not for their own benefit @COSLA @AccCommScot @CalumRoss23 @SPSO_Ombudsman

Jenny Gilruth has been withholding £145.5m from councils for half a year amid a stand-off over teacher cuts. Some of our recent coverage 👇 scotsman.com/news/politics/…

Totally, I have just shared her story with friends and I said the same. She certainly brought a tear to my eyes, and saw the person on front of me wiping hers too. We all have such a passion, to keep going and we will not give up.
Scottish Early Years Association@Scottish_PNA

Can honestly say, Jen's stories brought a tear to my eyes, and wish there were more HT like her. What a better place it would be for our children and young people.

Suzanne Zeedyk@suzannezeedyk

Retired Headteacher @JKnussen tells the story at @UpstartScot of the child who changed her. He was a child in care, suffering. "No one can help me." This is the birthplace of the term "distressed behaviour". Oh my ❤️. I remember the first time I heard her tell this story.
