We need a culture whereby legitimate complaints are taken seriously and lessons are learnt. For this to be achieved, we must not tolerate the abuse of the system by a minority of irrational and unpleasant people.

This is crippling schools. It’s important that legitimate concerns are heard and responded to, but we cannot allow complaints processes to be weaponised by a minority of parents who have a vendetta against a school. What can we do? 🧵

I have two copies of Responsive Coaching to give away. Simply **retweet this tweet** for your chance to win one of them. I'll pick two winners on Monday (23/09/24).

@michael_merrick Sorry, I’m not intending to be combative. I just think it was widely trailed and completely reasonable. I genuinely think that very few pupils will be moved as a result of this. Those who are need to be protected.

@steve_snelson Applying it in January, mid-year? I'm comfortable with my tweet.

@BraaiKing_Bad @rebecca_teach 😬

@rebecca_teach Oh dear! Not sure that can be beaten?

Can you beat this?

Late to the party with this one I’m sure. But just picking up Friday’s @guardian whilst in France and wondering if @martyneoliver realised quite the extent of the remit…

Perhaps because the SoS visited a school run by a successful academy chain 🤔 Why haven’t the government sorted this out yet 🙄 The level of carping from those who purport to be glad the previous government has been voted out is bizarre. I think the future looks very promising

Congratulations @bphillipsonMP. Looking forward to working with you on behalf of @CSTvoice to deliver opportunity for all children through equity, compassion and high standards of education for all.

My government will serve you. Politics can be a force for good. The work of change begins today.

Just watch it. Drink it in. You're never going to see anything like this ever again.

@L3arnAT @RainbowsHospice This is just fabulous 🤩 Well done @MrOwensYear6 👏🏻 👏🏻

Such a pleasure to join @MuftiPatel @LordJimKnight @LeoraCruddas @steverollett and @CSTvoice colleagues for tonight’s reception @UKHouseofLords Our school system is in great hands.

Sad to say but I agree. Another example of simply taking complaints at face value. ‘Lots of kids dislike new strict school as opposed to old, chaotic one that was horrible to be in but you could do what you like.’ It’s naive to attack a school when the reliability of the claims can’t be fact checked. This stuff makes heads think, ‘Why bother?’

@steverollett @CSTvoice To be clear, I do not think that public institutions, even working together in civic partnership, can solve the complex problem of poverty. This is why @CSTvoice calls on all parties to ensure that urgent action is taken. We need a cross-party strategy to eradicate child poverty.

@Tracieellis15 @diddlysquatshop @JeremyClarkson @ChelseaFC Tom is joining her! 🍻 Many happy returns 🎈

@SusanDouglas70 Exactly the same from a primary perspective. And our ability to make the right provision for pupils with SEND in mainstream schools is a challenge which, at times, feels impossible.

@headrod12 It was quite a week! Thank you for all your support. I saved my run for this morning 🌅 🏃🏻‍♂️ 😎
