Whatever the DfE is doing clearly isn't working. We're not going to behaviourism ourselves out of this situation, whatever friends of govt say. I think we have to look at wider issues around why the system isn't meeting needs. schoolsweek.co.uk/schools-lose-a…

If school uniform is to give children something trivial to rebel against, why make the consequences for infractions so very non-trivial (like sending them home, or putting them in isolation)? If every minute of education matters, why send a teenager to reset for having a nose…

@tracey_crosbie I will not identify the school or the parent as I do not have permission to do. If you search online for ‘school shoe policies’ you will find lots of examples.

if it’s about social levelling, why do blazers cost as much as a weekly shop? why do they have to be bought from a specific retailer?

If school uniform is about social levelling and not about preparing children for work, why the shirts and ties? And if it’s about social levelling, why withhold education from children with minor uniform infractions by sending them to isolation?

I don't just want to be known as having a learning disability. That is 1 part of who I am. There's so much more to me than that. I love theatre, I love kareoke singing, I love podcasting, I love cinema, I love my work, I love my family and I love chocolate!

The Rwanda Bill is a disgusting piece of legislation designed to demonise the world's most vulnerable people. This government has done everything it can to make the lives of refugees even harder. What a sorry and shameful legacy to leave behind.

Happy St. George’s Day! Loving your country means looking after each other to ensure nobody lives in poverty. It means defending our public institutions like the NHS. It means welcoming refugees — and celebrating the ways they have made our country a better place.

In the aftermath of horror, we need political leaders with the ability to facilitate de-escalation and peace. Instead, their thirst for war is endangering us all. My piece for the @guardian. theguardian.com/commentisfree/…

How many deaths and graves will it take for our political leaders to wake up? Read my full piece here: theguardian.com/commentisfree/…

Sometimes, when special measures are arranged in court victims are still left to walk to and enter the building alone, exposing them to their abuser. If you have special measures, make sure your lawyer meets you outside court so that you can safely walk in together.

The babies & toddlers who were raised with strict schedule feeding, controlled crying & pick up/put down, naughty steps, time out & 'ignoring' cries for attention are now teens. How have these detached, methods of childrearing affected them? What do you think? Is there a link?

Enough is enough. Disabled people are not the problem. Last week the Prime Minister made a speech about so-called 'sicknote culture'. He also proposed major changes to disability benefits. Today we're launching a petition in response to this full-on assault of disabled people.

What do you do when the narcissistic abuser says you’re ‘the narcissist?’ Do your best to ignore them and not take their bait. They want you to lose your shit on them. Why? Because then the narcissist can play victim to their flying monkeys. Don’t give them the…

People who are “openly Jewish” or “openly Muslim” etc should have the right to walk unhindered People who are “openly black” are 9 times more likely to be stopped by police People who are “openly women” have to fight for police to take their abuse seriously & rarely get justice

Until you ask for reasonable adjustments to make a school/workplace/healthcare environment more accessible to your needs. Until you use sensory aids (e.g. ear defenders) that are more ‘obvious’. Until you openly stim in public and people get ‘embarrassed’ to be near you.

“Everyone’s a little bit autistic.” Until autism makes you run away from overstimulating environments without saying goodbye to anyone. Until autism makes you too exhausted/overwhelmed to go to social events. Until autism makes you ‘impolite’ or even overtly rude sometimes.

🎯💯 This is exactly what happens. Absolute textbook. It is also a pre-cursory event in a homicide timeline. It is a warning. Even the most apparently docile of abusers make this choice. The threat to the children is real. Make a plan, get out & do it very quietly. #DomesticAbuse

Me: Tell me what happened when you assaulted your partner. Him: I didn't like what she was saying to me so I started to leave. But then I told myself I wasn't going to let her 'make me feel like a punk.' So I went back in and that's when I hit her. Me: So you made a choice to…
