So many pupils do well in GCSE languages, they have to use the grade boundaries to give them lower grades.

The reason only a few take A Level Languages, is because these courses are only designed for a few. That's fine. But where are the language courses focused on post 16 learners who are not looking for academic study? @bphillipsonMP It's not good enough: https://t.co/UvBVvjfWO6

I'm going to get some sleep. But just to end on a personal note I correctly predicted 573 of the 641 seats declared so far: 89% The exit poll predicted 549 (of 624 because no NI): 86%. I beat all the MRPs except for YouGovs (just) Feels like it was worth all that work.

Caring isn’t just my family's story, it is the story of millions, caring for each other, dealing with tough times, and keeping going with love. Sharing our story hasn't been easy, but it's important. It's time to bring carers' experiences into the light. https://t.co/osj0bh33QI
