On the A level grading announcement: we're pleased to have some clarity and welcome the decision to put teachers’ professional judgement at the heart of the process, but are concerned about the logistics. Read our chief exec Bill's full response here: https://t.co/ULWMlNTbOq

FE Week - February 23

.@billwatkin: 'The key to a successful return from this date is flexibility. Opening to all students at the same time presents a range of very significant logistical challenges, not least the requirement to test all students and staff.' https://t.co/OLapBMdaOM

"The key to a successful return from March 8th is flexibility...college leaders must have the autonomy to re-open in a way that reflects their different local circumstances and student populations”. Read our response to colleges re-opening: https://t.co/bpMxhZhObu

Proud to have supported this important statement - we want students back on site ASAP, but it's not clear that a mass return of all age groups at once on the 8th is sensible or safe. https://t.co/yUCasLsBht

Calling all sixth form teachers, support staff, and leaders: we're hosting an informal chat on engaging (and re-engaging) students in online learning at 7pm next Thursday, inspired by this blog. DM for the link. https://t.co/F0qyY70QmH

And we're also hosting a piece from @miss_mcinerney about the possibility that we will see a 'K-shaped' recovery from lockdown, with educational inequality increasing. What should politicians be thinking about to redress it? https://t.co/hkCm9eqmhx

A new report by @NEONHE shows abolishing BTECs will significantly decrease access to higher education for people from disadvantaged backgrounds. 📉⬇️ @wonkhe https://t.co/ZKTt7GGCSD

Essential reading for anyone not yet convinced of the need to #ProtectAGQs - the government's proposals will cut off opportunities for BAME students and those from 'left-behind' areas. https://t.co/6lwhSjgBM4

While we wait for clarity on grades this year, sixth forms have to get on with admitting Year 11s as normal - without the usual information on academic performance. On the blog today, Michael Fitzsimons of @tah6thform shares his thoughts on how to proceed: https://t.co/IgVRKZPoBU

And in the meantime, teachers continue to face the tough task of engaging students in online learning. While it can feel like an uphill struggle, @BeckyFrancis7 says the research so far gives us reasons for optimism: https://t.co/aOF0vpPHVW

With exams cancelled, @ofqual and @educationgovuk have to decide on an alternative way to award A levels, GCSEs, and BTECs to students. What principles should they bear in mind? Our chief exec Bill explains on the blog: https://t.co/AFpqMynnwd

.@drcatheriner1 makes an important point here: while students from "left behind" areas are at a disadvantage, "a big part of improving attainment, alongside great teaching, is simply demystifying university as a concept." The result? Half of her students @EastNorfolk go to uni. https://t.co/ZPT8Pf6nkq
