@Flash_Nic @CreEnglish So you want to create a bad outcome for certain kids. What an absolutely deplorable moron you are. Anyone with any sense and morals would want the best for any and every child whatever their background. Poisonous.

@David_Spendlove What did you make of her comment about @bphillipsonMP not visiting any of the 100 schools that have achieved the greatest improvement? I found that interesting.

@actonblue @miffythegamer @bphillipsonMP Perhaps she’s unpopular with some because she gets ‘far more better’ results that don’t fit well with a one size fits all, centrally driven ideology. Enjoy yours.

@actonblue @miffythegamer It was SkillForce. Not Skillset. In fact I did appear on BBC Breakfast and a fair few radio interviews. Her point this morning was that @bphillipsonMP hadn’t visited any of the 100 schools that had achieved the highest measured progress for pupils. Missed opportunity.

@actonblue @miffythegamer That’s not correct. If it’s in the shadows, how is good practice shared?

@actonblue @miffythegamer Nobody is trying to annoy (I hope!). It’s a thread about academic excellence and standards.

@ChefWolfHTT @JohnTrevorO @usmlr @espn @nolagoldrugby @HoundsChicago @SDLegion @SeawolvesRugby @utwarriorsrugby @AnthemRugby @miasharksrugby @HOUSaberCats @NEFreeJacks @OldGloryDC If it helps grow the league that is truly a good thing. Selfishly I just want to be able to watch live from England. But gather TRN will still do that. So could be best of all worlds.

@1n_v1no_ver1tas @SkippyBing @Telegraph Then relax knowing others have. Including Sikhs in turbans and now female officers in saris.

@johncosgrove405 @wilksyTC79 @Beloved71478281 More dangerous than Ed Sec approach to independent schools?

@sturdyAlex @mwrgeography @Miss_Snuffy Fair point. No fan of grandstanding. Not sure her school loses out from this but have limited knowledge there. The scrap is unfortunate. But BP hasn’t achieved a single useful thing I can see that makes education better. And can see serious downside.

@sturdyAlex @mwrgeography @Miss_Snuffy But what about her school’s results. Have you a balanced view on those?
