It was brilliant to see @norwichcollege feature on Wednesday's @itvanglia's 6pm news highlighting the consequences the pay gap between school and college teachers has on the government's missions for economic growth and productivity. View it here: itv.com/watch/news/cat…

ICYMI Here's a link to last night's @itvanglia story on why the 5 colleges in Norfolk and Suffolk are calling for increased investment in further education. 👀 @AoC_info @EastCoast_Coll @cwa_college @WestSuffolk @suffolknewcoll itv.com/watch/news/cat…

Our principal @JerryWhiteCCN has also been speaking to @BBCNorfolk about the challenges facing colleges. Listen again 🔗 bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/p0… (from 2:43:20)
