Commission on Young Lives report aims to reduce school exclusions

The report, 'All Together Now: Inclusion not exclusion - supporting all young people to succeed in school' makes a series of recommendations for how schools can be supported to divert vulnerable teenagers away from crime and exploitation and enable them to thrive.

Ofsted has warned that there is a ‘lack of collective knowledge’ around the needs of children in care and has called for a national audit of children needs.

NEU says that 44 per cent of England’s state-school teachers plan to quit by 2027, with half of those intending to leave within two years.

Liverpool City Council is to invest three-quarters of a million pounds in improving its schools and teachers.

The Labour Party has said that the average annual cost of a nursery place for children under two has risen by nearly £1,500 in five years.

Sixty two further education colleges are to benefit from a share of more than £400 million to upgrade buildings and transform campuses.

Better support for children and young people with special educational needs and disabilities is at the heart of a new national plan.

More than a million additional school children could receive free school meals if the sign-up process for the scheme was simplified.

Every school in England will have access to high speed internet by 2025, as part of the latest plans to roll out lightning-fast gigabit broadband across the UK.

New jobs and skills training are at risk of delay or being lost altogether due to a looming funding gap when existing European funding runs out.

The annual survey by Coram Family and Childcare has found that parents across Britain are being squeezed by rising childcare costs and a drop in available places.

More than 60 organisations in England will receive a share of £48 million which is being released as part of the Cultural Investment Fund.

A new independent government body will be created to support teachers in delivering excellent curriculum content as part of world class lessons.

Reforms designed to improve the lives of children with SEND have failed to prevent a rise in legal disputes and tribunal hearings over the support they receive.

The government’s multi-million pound catch up programme risks failing pupils who need it the most, says the Education Select Committee.
