Oh good Lord, the comments.
This just means the GCSE in Ukrainian has now been accredited, giving the option to Ukrainian students in the UK to take a GCSE in their first language, much as we have for Polish etc.
It's not going to be compulsory for British schoolkids.
Students in England, Wales and Northern Ireland will be able to take a Ukrainian GCSE from 2028 as part of government plans

Really proud of colleagues who have made this happen.
Proud to announce that students in England will be able to study Ukrainian at GCSE.
It’s a chance for pupils to explore Ukraine’s rich culture and history and, for the Ukrainian community to remain connected to their heritage.
This is another step in our enduring support for Ukraine as part of the 100 Year Partnership 🇺🇦🇬🇧

Labour governments have shared a common conviction: progress is made progressive when the state is capable, its institutions credible.
On AI, we are building exceptional state capacity: meeting this most impactful moment for @AISecurityInst, doubling down on @UKSovereignAI, pioneering with an AI Biosecurity Lab (AIBL), defending Britain with new cyber defences.

“When Americans see what’s really happening on the ground in Ukraine, the Kremlin’s lies fall apart.”
Shelby Wilder combats russian lies every day on conservative media.
She knows that truth matters. And she’s not afraid to fight for it. That’s why I sat down with her Kyiv.

NEW: UK Foreign Secretary @Ed_Miliband has told Russian Foreign Minister Lavrov that he and his government are responsible for killing innocent civilians, condemning Thursday’s attack on Dnipro railway station
Speaking directly to Lavrov at a meeting of G20 foreign ministers in the US today, Miliband said:
"Let me say this directly to the Russian Foreign Minister: we all know who the aggressor in this war is. Let's talk about what happened at Dnipro railway yesterday. Only yesterday your drones attacked and killed 15 people. And there are countless examples like this of you killing innocent civilians throughout this war. We all know you are the aggressor. We all know you started this war four and a half years ago with the full scale invasion of Ukraine. "
"And Putin thought then he would win this war easily. But you are are not winning this war. Thanks to the courage of the Ukrainian people and the solidarity of countries round this table, you are not winning. If you had the courage to tell the truth and to do what is right you would tell Putin that he is not winning this war and will not win."

I grew up with Patrick Stewart as Captain Picard, watching ST:TNG on BBC2 from the little box tv hung up in the corner of the kitchen. What a brilliant time to have been a kid thanks to him. RIP.

I welcome that the Government is negotiating a Mayoral Strategic Authority for the geography of Devon.
Devolution offers huge new decision-making & funding for our area.
To feel the full benefits, the new MSA must fully include Exeter as one of the economic drivers of Devon.
