For those who knew and loved my inspirational friend and colleague, Helen Snelson, it is my sad job to tell you that she died yesterday afternoon. I know how much she meant to so many of you and she was so grateful for your support and love these last few months.

So, it appears to be the day when this deeply flawed and apparently annual report is published. The problems with the analysis in the report are manifold but strikingly they are consistent with last year’s equally problematic version. 🧵 1/11
Local Government Association (LGA)@LGAcomms

Our new research has shown schools that remain within their council have continued to outshine those converted to academies. The report found 93% of council-maintained schools were rated outstanding or good compared to 87% of academies. ⬇️🧵1/4 local.gov.uk/about/news/cou…

#OTD in 1943, at 10.45am, siblings Hans and Sophie Scholl walked into Munich University and distributed anti-Nazi leaflets. They were caught. On 22 Feb, they were sentenced to death and decapitated. Sophie had defiantly told the judge: "Somebody, after all, had to make a start."
