If anyone wants to help, trust me, any teacher is always grateful for good books for our class libraries. Or vouchers to let teachers get class sets of books etc. We need to save literacy or society is in big trouble
Nuzie@nuzie.bsky.social · 4d agoOn the back of my post below, OECD highlights here just how bad the issue is with almost every country seeing a decline in reading and critical literacy. We have to reverse this, can't keep ignoring the current and future consequences of this.

Nuzie@nuzie.bsky.social · 5d agoThis should terrify us all. The decline in reading specifically starts just at the emergence of the smartphone and then excellerates from Covid onwards.
Taking strike action is always a last resort, but staff are resolute in not only defending their jobs, but protecting academic standards and the high quality educational teaching that students deserve. https://www.glasgowtimes.co.uk/news/26557298.glasgow-caledonian-university-lecturers-go-strike/

Today is International Equal Pay Day. The 10% Gender Pay Gap in Scotland is a complete failure of the state. Governments and employers need to seriously buck their ideas up if we are to eliminate the gap. @rozfoyer.bsky.social/ @scotsman.com www.scotsman.com/news/politic...
Gender pay gap a 'failure of the state', says top trade unionist

“The issue is that members of the audience responded with violence and, more importantly, Reform’s most senior politicians excused it. The party is MAGA-fying in front of our eyes.” Shehab Khan for Zeteo UK on the violence at the Reform UK conference:
‘Oh Boohoo’ – The Violence Against Peaceful Protesters at Reform UK’s Conference, and the Reaction To It, Should Worry Us All
In America, Donald Trump has shown us what happens when politicians laugh at violence from their supporters and suggest its victims brought it on themselves. Reform UK is MAGA-fying in front of us.
