Great to support @LouiseMcKinlay of @Essex_CC at a fantastic event in Parliament earlier today celebrating the work of the council, businesses and civil society across the county in spreading opportunities - partnerships making a huge difference on the ground.

Great to join @CFraserBBC for my first @BBCNews Context of the year, picking up on the story of the UK’s last braille typewriter repairer potentially retiring. Important that there’s a knowledge and skills plan to keep this vital service available for those who need it.

The Conservative Party must face the reality of its worst ever general election result & tack back to being a party of the mainstream. It needs a sense of purpose about what it is for, not just what it is against. 👇See my @guardianopinion piece

As the Tories gather in Birmingham, a former minister argues that the party must become more inclusive, with a focus on aspiration

It’s time for solutions. We need to use this data for locally-led, targeted approaches to break down barriers & create equal opportunities for all. It’s what our Purpose Coalition work is all about. #SocialMobility #StateOfTheNation #BreakingDownBarriers

Important insight from @suttontrust. The School Admissions Dashboard reveals significant socio-economic segregation in England's schools, esp in the North East. Tackling this inequality is key to closing the attainment gap & breaking down barriers. #EducationEquality #SuttonTrust
🚨 NEW: For the first time, we can reveal school by school information on how secondary pupil intakes reflect their local community. Our accompanying analysis looks at which local authorities in England have the most and least socially segregated schools ⬇️🧵
