My average GCSE class size was 34 last year, if you feel like pushing it nearer to 40, you do you. Classroom’s built for 30.
Won’t be my problem anymore but you need to create the capacity and staffing before taking more into the system.
They're not necessary at all and are one of the biggest factors in perpetuating inequality.It is but by the time Labour get in they’ll have been neglected for 15 years. I do think privately a lot of Labour MPs know that private schools are a necessary evil for them until the state sector is repaired.
I believe a fair chunk of private school teachers aren't properly qualified to work in state schools, or they are simply maladjusted, conspiracy theorists, psychopaths, or nonces.......
But if private schools were closed then the buildings and teachers would be available for state schools.Both countries take a more progressive approach to things full stop. Our state schools aren’t in a position to take on the extra numbers.
The teachers would probably leave education rather than work in state schools-there is usually a good reason why they didn’t do that in the first place. The debate could go on for some time. For me as someone who has been taught and then gone on to teach in all 3 contexts, and then left the profession, you need to fix state education first.But if private schools were closed then the buildings and teachers would be available for state schools.
As others have said if private education can't survive paying the 20% VAT then it's a broken business model. Why should a select few get the benefit of not paying tax on what is a luxury while less privileged kids get next to nothing. Because the ones who decide are the politicans who came through that fucking system - they liked it as a closed shop.
Plus I agree about putting these privileged kids into the state system and see how much these parents suddenly care about state school funding.

It is a pity that Sir Keir probably won’t do much to help beyond a bit of incrementalism. He also won’t revoke this VAT exemption either, most likely.

I know who you are referring to and yes he was a very curious individual. Invited me round his house for dinner parties
Wilko paid out a total of £77 million to the owners and former shareholders of the stricken retail chain in the decade before its collapse.
These included a £3 million dividend last year, which was paid despite Wilko racking up losses of £39 million. A total of £3.2 million was doled out in 2018 when Wilko slid to a £65 million loss.
Wilko's failure has left the retirement fund with a multi-million pound shortfall and pensioners may end up with a reduced annual income for life. The scheme is likely to be bailed out by the Pension Protection Fund (PPF), the industry lifeboat. However, workers who have not yet retired could see their pensions reduced.
XxxtsSame shit, different company. How is this sort of thing legal? As is always the case those at the top will be just fine and those at the bottom are potentially screwed for the rest of their lives with a pension shortfall
Wilko paid out £77m to owners before collapse

Just another reason to increase worker owned co-ops. At least then if they pay big dividends they're only fucking over themselves.Same shit, different company. How is this sort of thing legal?

C4 news is the best news program on TV bar none. You’ve also got the brilliant Despatches. Then you’ve got the comedy, Father Ted, Inbetweeners, Vic Reeves big night out etc etc. Countdown is a national treasure. Then there’s the film arm of it. The film’s its been involved with as a production company is astounding as demonstrated by its Oscar nominations, 11 at the last Oscars alone. Films such as 12 years a slave, three billboards… etc etc. over 100 nominations and over 30 wins. A record for a British company and a company that’s only 40 years old. It’s a bit of a phenomenon and it’s largely if not wholly down to the unique way it’s funded. It would be a crime to lose it over some far right hysterical and failing ideology.
Hope he doesn’t play chessI see you’ve mentioned being a fan of Father Ted rather a lot Tony - I’m surprised given your rather excitable involvement in the discussion on trans rights you are not up in arms at the banning of the writer and creator Graham Linehan from the fringe festival at the Edinburgh Festival
Mr Linehan has (in my view) been rather foolish to continue to confront and take on the baying trans movement but his initial comments were that only men are (gosh) men and women are (shock horror) women - he then made a joke about it - not very tasteful but hey that’s comedy - or clearly it isn’t

You just don’t understand, he’s playing 4D chess so that he can enact left wing policies from the inside.What's the point of this plank and his cronies?

Well it is if you think Starmer is the political equivalent of Pep. Though I will concede that Sunak might have the brains to manage Tiddlywinks Primary.Saw someone on Twitter say it’s like Man City parking the bus after going 2-0 against a Primary School team at this point.

Just copy paste the 2017 manifesto and give Starmer the energy and passion of 2017 Corbyn.More about political capital than leader skill. The country is so fucked and the government so unpopular that Labour could be much bolder.

So much to thank the Conservative and Unionist Party for in their time in government
