Yes, it's a cult.

@JordanWebber96 What a night.

Thirteen years ago today… Michael Laudrup’s Swansea City defeating the champions of Europe at Stamford Bridge in the Carabao Cup semi-final, first-leg. The year the Swans made history. Michu - 39’ Danny Graham - 92’ FT: Chelsea 0-2 Swansea City. 🦢🏆

🚨The Teachers Talk Radio SEND horrorshow🚨 With so much ignorance, discrimination & cruelty around SEND, it's often hard to summarise it in one bite. But then @TTRadioOfficial showcased a world of ableism & gaslighting in a single 40-min show. Buckle up; this gets wild... 🧵

The day Charlie Kirk decided he was just going to debate college kids going forward.

In Nov 2024, journalist @AnnaFazack1 broke the story of abusive practices at Mossbourne Victoria Park Academy. Today the CHSCP report reveals a culture of harm & fear. But AF was publicly castigated for this by @tombennett71 & others. It's time to show the receipts. 🧵

Next time someone asks what's the matter with this site, show them this: An account in India, amplifying a billionaire from South Africa being encouraged by an Irish passport holder, using an alias, to encourage civil unrest in the UK.

Our 8-12 year old pupils chose a different book as their favourite - the epic and truly amazing Amazing Asia takes the Children's Choice accolade for this category. HUGE congratulations to @RashmiWriting @jasonlyon_ and @QuartoKids #childrensbooks #InformationBookAward

The most recent @IBBYUK conference centred on what histories children are traditionally told and how these can be resisted, expanded, interrupted. A superb lineup of speakers including: Farrah @clpe1 Chris Haughton @storyvilled with @candygourlay & @balirai …
