Anyone else's children in the paddling pool? Or is that just mine.....

This new chart from UCEA summarises more neatly than anything else I have ever seen just why policymakers will want the HE sector to offer something up in return for more funding. (And policymakers could make that easier by, for example, not mandating membership of the TPS.)

We're excited to share the first TEP case study with our partner school Brooklands Farm Primary School - Maxine Low, Executive Head, met with us and explained her approach to workload, wellbeing and flexible working. Have a read here: buff.ly/3Uc3hhU Webinar: buff.ly/49qq275

Just received an email asking me to teach a course in China for 4 weeks in the Autumn. What in, I hear you ask? The answer Volleyball. Easiest $5000 I will ever make I think! (Not sure thebstudent feedback will be great though)....

Just had a project about the link between Ofsted inspections and teacher stress rejected by the ESRC/UKRI. Will be interesting to see what they do actually fund.....

3 big questions in my new report with Cambridge University Press & Assessment:

1. What information do we need to navigate the way to educational equity?
2. How can we use data to navigate to educational equity?
3. How can obstacles to educational equity be dismantled?
