Absolutely stunned with this peerage… Ruth Perry commited suicide under Spielman’s leadership of Ofsted.. There is no way Spielman becmade a peer. If she had any moral compass she’d turn it down flat! www.theguardian.com/education/20...

South America has just cancelled all Elon Musk's Starlink contracts. Obviously South America is not a country
but Carlos Slim owns more than 80% of the ISPs there, so in effect it is. A $29bn loss to Elon Musk.

So interesting to see the fluidity of language and grammar .. Yet the education department invented for U11’s the phrase fronted adverbials..put a checklist of grammatical devices on what’s acceptable to be a true writer. No wonder why writing continues to be the weakest area nationwide in primary.
