Interrogating what it means to use and respect evidence in education, and for research evidence to take account of what happens in colleges, is Dr Phil Kirkman from @AngliaRuskin. #sfcaconf pic.twitter.com/rFE7nqr2OF

After a break we’re hearing from Martin, principal at @StCharlesSFC in London which has had a remarkable journey over the last few years including an innovative ‘5-day week, 4-day academic curriculum’ model allowing teachers to WFH #sfcaconf pic.twitter.com/ICbyOJG3uS

Superb editorial in the @guardian on the sixth form college pay scandal. Without the same funding, sixth form colleges cannot make the same pay award as schools. Put students first and end the strikes by providing SFCs with the £ they need @bphillipsonMP https://t.co/8Cokriuput

If you enjoyed this piece, check out another from Debbie on the @britishlibrary blog about adapting oral history lessons for a new (younger) audience. A brilliant case study in thinking about how to scaffold a learning experience:https://t.co/7zZSyyjqAj https://t.co/uC4A2BZ2mA

An excellent listen.@SFCA_info's James is spot on to say this type of behaviour would never happen with A Levels. Thank you James, @Tom_Middlehurst & @Tom_Richmond 👏👏👏 https://t.co/YhQUXRt2w3

Thank you to sixth form college champion @AlisonEBennett for raising the issue of sixth form college pay at #PMQs today. Teachers and support staff in our sector deserve the same pay award as staff in schools and colleges - ministers must address this injustice without delay. https://t.co/yltzJRxsrt

Listen to @SFCA_info's James Kewin and @ASCL_UK's @Tom_Middlehurst make the case to #ProtectStudentChoice in the latest of this excellent podcast series from @Tom_Richmond. BTECs have vital role to play alongside A levels and T levels in the future qualifications landscape. https://t.co/49Zrow97VY

We took on the legal challenge (alone) and through dialogue secured 5/12 of £ required for SFC teacher pay. Not the 100% we need but better than the 0% we had. JR would have taken months and left teachers with 0 this year. We now have 4.3% vs 5.5% - we bank that and fight on.
