#ASCL2024: Bill Shankly said "Aim for the sky and you'll reach the ceiling. Aim for the ceiling and you'll stay on the floor."
As a profession, we will continue to aim for the sky. On behalf of the young people and families we serve, let's demand government joins us in this."
@RealGeoffBarton watched the Merchant of Venice at the RSC following your recommendation- absolutely brilliant almost as good as your narration of the play
Incredibly proud of students at my past @EWSacademy_ and present school @KingsthorpeCo for an amazing set of results this summer. Well done to all involved.
31yrs ago today that this happened, one of those rare brutally raw moments in sport that lives forever in our emotional memories… I’m still mystified how Jim got past security?! Barcelona 1992 Olympics
No teacher or leader wants to strike - they do want the government to negotiate. Your vote counts-it will help @ASCL_UK engage in negotiations. If you don’t vote please don’t complain when schools get unfunded pay deals or pay deals that are well below the STRB recommendations.
A crisis in funding, recruitment & retention, no resumption of pay talks - and no sense of urgency from government, says @RealGeoffBarton
Ballot papers are with eligible #ASCLmembers now - please send your message to government and post your #VoteForEducation.

@asclvicepres John Camp spoke this week at the #SaveOurSchools lobby of Parliament.
Please make sure you return your ballot and #VoteForEducation
I have dedicated over 30 years to the education system and NEVER voted to strike. However, to continue to serve our young people we need the staff and the funding to be successful. I see it as my duty to vote yes on this occasion
@ASCL_UK#yourvoteisyourvoice
Maybe you agree that schools should be staffed, pay should be at a level that attracts and retains great teachers. or maybe you don’t. Your vote is your voice. VOTE NOW!
