Please take a moment to read this @SFCA_info blog on our work with @acltcharity to raise awareness of sickle cell anaemia. It's vitally important that more people sign up to become stem cell, blood and organ donors. https://t.co/ddgHS3sA88

See @SFCA_info response to @educationgovuk response to @ONS reclassification: "DfE has missed a golden opportunity to address the long standing and indefensible inequalities that exist between colleges and other providers of 16-19 education". https://t.co/aBCKVZ0xX3

We often talk about 'teaching to the top'. But does this phrase lead to good teaching? In this blog, @DavidDidau writes about replacing it with the idea of 'gapless instruction' - leaving no cracks for any student in the ability range to fall through. https://t.co/NwjO75zVIk

Thrilled to be a front page success story! Our chief exec Bill says: "For every sixth form college to be judged as good or outstanding is remarkable, particularly given the disruption caused by Covid. We are proud to represent such a high-performing sector." https://t.co/4UOqJG8auu

With take-up of vocational courses increasing, our deputy chief exec James says here that “DfE would like to see T levels replace Btecs but... scrapping Btecs is a guaranteed way to reverse the recent progress made in student participation and performance." #protectstudentchoice https://t.co/K8ihQiyxdh

Finally, some valuable words from Martin Ward @ofsted on what enhanced skills inspections look like for sixth form colleges. They’re not just looking for local skill matches but also for employability training and great guidance about next steps. #sfcacurriculum

We’re hearing now about preparing for Ofsted from someone who’s been there on both sides of the inspection - @RRonksley. Participating in pilot inspections and being honest about areas to improve meant staff were calm during the real thing. #sfcacurriculum

Looking at reports for outstanding colleges shows a challenging, well-sequenced curriculum set as a north star, implemented through research-informed teaching and assessment, and resulting in excellent destinations for students. #sfcacurriculum

Great to hear from @BeccaCHMI about Ofsted now. While we know most outstanding schools re- inspected recently have lost that grade, 80% of SFCs have retained it! #sfcacurriculum
