Teachers’ morale is at an all time low. And no wonder when they are still waiting for their pay deal. When we had to delay teacher pay awards, Bridget Phillipson said it was “a complete derelicti...

The legacy of the PM & Bridget Phillipson will be destroying school standards, leaving schools in the red, & teachers’ jobs on the line. It’s no surprise that 72% of teachers & support staff think...

Preston Davey was failed by every safeguard meant to protect him, and this was from a service that had allegedly improved after the grooming gangs scandal. Ofsted must rapidly reassess the “Good” ...

Great to be out in sunny #Rayleigh today with @markfrancoisofficial for by-election polling day #voteconservative 🗳️🔵

It was great to be out this morning talking to media about the PMs decision to FINALLY ban social media for the U16s. It won’t be perfect, but it marks an important cultural shift and sends a clear...

A proper plan to build a stronger country. Things can be better, we would make them better. While this Labour government has been hell-bent on carrying out education vandalism & leaving behind a ...

Knocking on doors is such a salve to the impression that society is broken, because most people are nice, kind and decent. They take time to speak to people that come to their front door, even if t...
