When our young people are carrying around stress through ACEs and trauma and are in a dysregulated brain and body state, they struggle to regulate and access their pre frontal cortex (learning brain). This is not an attainment gap but an adversity gap.🧠🌱
"This sector is vital to the country’s future and the vandalism to it unconscionable." UK Higher Education is shrinking. @QUEENMARY_UCU is tracking redundancies on this live page. Where disciplines are mentioned, disproportionately it's arts subjects. qmucu.org/qmul-transform…
And the London Borough of Culture 2025 and 2027 winners are… 🥁 Wandsworth - London Borough of Culture 2025 Haringey - London Borough of Culture 2027 Huge congratulations to them both—very well deserved. Culture truly can empower communities and transform lives.
Congratulations to the team @wandbc for their successful LBOC bid - looking forward to seeing what’s planned #londonboroughofculture2025

1/4 Pay in the arts: folk I know look to their peers on pay rates. But across the whole arts sector we are massively underpaid, and our rates of pay have not increased in line with inflation. Our pay has increased 3%, whereas UK average increased 6%. artsprofessional.co.uk/news/arts-work…
A cash-starved council is proposing disabled people be interned in care homes if their social care is “too costly”. This is a story of savage public funding cuts but also of which people society deems to matter. My col. in today’s @guardian theguardian.com/commentisfree/…
The @TowerHamletsNow Small Grants Fund closes on 2 Feb. There is £800,000 annual funding to support small voluntary and community sector groups. There's lots of support to make an application. Info session today at 5.30pm and on 24 Jan. Find out more orlo.uk/wbU3T
The arts shows us what we’re capable of, & feeds our sense of wonder. This is important for everyone, esp. children - I love their gasps! 😍

How do we damage young people? By blaming,shaming & punishing them.What if we pay more attention to their triggers, patterns & root causes and actually take the time to understand the reasons for their behaviour or "what has happened to them" before school issues exacerbate 🧠🌱

Last month I submitted evidence to this inquiry to highlight how children and young people are so ignored within the English planning system, with even other countries in the UK ahead of us. I wanted to point out that it's not just about playgrounds and we need to say more...
