Oh dear! @boostpoweruk you've now cut me off for the 5th time today. This time you were putting me through to the finance department? So that's 6 staff, 3 different departments, 68 minutes on the phone and I'm still no further on . No surprise there sadly.

@IPSEAcharity Would you have any guidance on mainstream school residential trips when a child has an EHCP? Does inclusion extend to these activities?

With move of @Bren4Bassetlaw it appears therefore that we are still lacking a Minister for Children in @educationgovuk - are children such a low priority for Truss govt?

So grateful if Twitter pals could retreat this, I’m so upset that someone would take my painting, I’m only an amateur so can’t understand why. Have you seen my painting? Taken from an art exhibition in Old Hayes, Bromley, on Sat 23 July 2022. Pls contact me with any info.

The cost of living is going to hit everyone hard. Some a LOT harder than others. We are not all in the same boat. We may be sailing the same storm, but some have a blow up dingy and some yacht. One thing I don’t think you should stop however is paying into your teacher pension.
