NEW: How much revenue would be raised from removing tax exemptions from UK private schools?
Our new report by @lukesibieta, funded by @NuffieldFound, calculates the net gain to the public finances from @UKLabour’s proposed policy:

'The job that teachers are currently trained for does not match the daily reality of providing emotional and mental health support, resolving family conflict and providing food and clothes', says @McBreartySinead in a new @EdSupportUK report

NEW: I’m not sure people fully appreciate how dire the US life expectancy / mortality situation has got.

And some utterly damning charts.
1) at *every* point on the income distribution, Americans live shorter lives than the English.
Really unacceptable - the attainment gap at primary school is now the widest in a decade.
This report by @csjthinktank emphasises the need for greater investment in early years to tackle some of the root causes
In 2022, two in five children left English primary schools without reaching expected standards in reading, writing and maths.
📌In Cracks in Our Foundations, we make a raft of recommendations to address the longstanding attainment gap.

Proud that we @TalentEd_edu hit the target of 65% of students being eligible for Free School Meals, even if the catch-up effort as a whole fell short.
I’m sure many of our @_TheFEA partners hit this target too @TheTutorTrust @ActionTutoring @BrilliantClub @CoachBrightUK

Teachers' pay has fallen in real terms since 2010. But has this happened to the same extent in other OECD countries?
OECD data says no. England is an outlier for teacher pay growth 2010-2020
Super proud of all the great things we achieved last year - have a read!

Disappointing stats on NTP uncovered by @SchoolsWeek - last year just 49% of pupils on the programme were Pupil Premium eligible. Disappointing, but not unexpected given this KPI was quietly scrapped for providers
schoolsweek.co.uk/revealed-t…
So the long-awaited eval of NTP Y1 by @TheNFER finds that broadly tutoring is associated with better grades (with an avalanche of methodological caveats), but that the scheme failed to target disadvantaged pupils adequately schoolsweek.co.uk/tutoring-s…
Now that we have seen the detail of this evaluation, with all the gaps and unanswered questions, the case for more and better evaluation of the NTP that I made last week in @SchoolsWeek is even stronger (schoolsweek.co.uk/ntp-better…)

"Evidence generation seems to have been side-lined' - writes @AdamAlagiah

My piece for @SchoolsWeek on why evaluation of the NTP will be crucial to securing its legacy.
The work of @TheCfEY @ImpactEd_tweets and of course @TalentEd_edu mentioned

Good to see @AdamAlagiah in @schoolsweek calling for the NTP to be backed up by solid research- particularly in relation to some of of key gaps (eg tutoring in areas other than reading) & acknowledging @TheCfEY's work in this area.

Context to @trussliz speech: the average two-year fixed residential mortgage rate on the market today is 6.07%. The last time is was this high was November 2008 in the wake of the financial crisis
Anyone else feeling a bit uncomfortable watching the very blonde Galadriel talking about wiping out someone else’s race?

Today we called on @kitmalthouse to take action to ensure the #NTP has a lasting positive impact on under-served young people. Proud to have signed this letter on behalf of @TalentEd_edu alongside a number of other @_TheFEA members
Exclusive: 14 organisations including several accredited @NTProgramme tuition providers have written to @kitmalthouse outlining the need for "urgent" action - including a subsidy boost next year - to ensure the "original focus" of the scheme "is not lost" tes.com/magazine/news/genera…
Wow. Depressing - but important - report out today by @TheIFS on educational inequalities in England. Some lowlights of note: The decreasing level of overall education spending...

The unequal outcomes in the labour market once young people leave school. How are we getting this so badly wrong?!

NEW: Inequalities by family background emerge early and persist as children progress through the education system.
@ckfarquharson, @Sandra_McNally & Imran Tahir’s findings from our IFS Deaton Review chapter on education inequalities, funded by @NuffieldFound, in a thread:

ALT Chart shows attainment gaps between students eligible and not eligible for free school meals at different stages of the education system, 2019. Title states: "Children from disadvantaged families perform significantly worse at school than their better-off peers."
