Delighted to see that the industrial strategy includes "£375m of capital investment to support post-16 capacity to accommodate additional learners entering the system" - exactly what we've been calling for given our rising sixth form population! #createthecapital https://t.co/v7Xf34rHsx

Kicking off day 2, @drpaulredmond explains gen Z - and even gen alpha! - to us. While their unique characteristics are new, and often fuelled by unprecedented exposure to tech, "every generation is a new people" and we understand them partly by understanding ourselves. #sfcaconf pic.twitter.com/Gxm7qirO6G
