Badenoch, the equalities Minister remember, has just advocated cutting teaching assistants in schools and extra-curricular activities (pre and post school day).
Resources of course which tend to help the disadvantaged more than anyone.
Ah, the cuddly Tories... |  | | |  |

They seem to take some real pleasure from hurting people don't they?
Have these idiots ever been into a regular classroom in their lives?
TAs were an excellent introduction and I wish they'd been around sooner.
Having an extra adult who is free to wander the room and help out the kids who may have misunderstood instructions or are struggling with things is an obvious advantage to their education. |  |

And as an added insult you get Tory MPs happily dispensing advice on how to cook meals for 20p - whilst enjoying heavily discounted food and drink at Parliament. |
It's typical them to assume that, when they get a Fillet Mignon in Parliament for £3.60, that £0.20 should get you Gammon and Chips. |  | | |

Bludy well said at the end there. |  |

She's a Tory, of course she's not.

I assumed she was just doing this for a bit of a career boost but she's currently polling (among Conservative voters via ConservativeHome) in second behind Mordaunt.
Worrying stuff. |
I assume either her or Truss will fill the Brexit loon pot on the furthest right of the party.
I can't see Mordaunt making it. She might poll well with members, but I can't see the MPs letting it get that far. | | | |

Her parents are Nigerian and she was educated in Lagos
Left in 96 so our paths never crossed.
Her siblings are called Fola and Lola.
She's a Tory who tbh aren't my fav people today (Dad just waited 5 hours for an ambulance) but thought the above was of mild interest |
So probably educated in a British or International School, helped by the British Council and an institution she would happily gut for it's wokeness.
As I said, nice lady... | | | |

Some on here get upset when posters slaughter the Tories, but their heroes make it so easy to do so. The Conservative Party is increasingly vile. |
They've always been vile, but the success of the vote leave campaign has emboldened them to say the quiet stuff out loud. | |

All those pre- and post-school activites which parents with jobs* rely on to occupy their children while they are at work?
* You know, the fully-employed and non-benefit-claiming sort her own party are attempting to schmooze. |  |

Just like how a lot of hospital wards won’t be able to operate as well without their Nursing Assistants, schools will be the poorer without TAs. If anything, they should be given a pay rise and propels encouraged to become one.
It’s just madness.
Is it considered ‘Essential Criteria’ for newer Tories to be vile? |
It's essential criteria for them to be OPENLY vile as opposed to just quietly voting for a supporting vile policies and opinions as the old-skool ones do. | |

Talking about statues, street names and “woke schools” will appeal to the base but I highly doubt the country will care about that when the typical energy bill hits 3.5k in January.
Braverman and Badenoch are clearly the crank candidates and that’s before you get onto the fantasy economics from Zahawi, Javid and Hunt. |  |

So when I was teaching in KS2, we had funding for one general TA in each class every morning. We also had a number of SEN kids who had one on one support.
Without the support, many of the SEN children would need to be taught elsewhere - as they'd have been too disruptive without that support. It enabled them to access the learning and additionally benefited the other pupils as they were taught with kids with a variety of difficulties and it helped them develop empathy skills.
TAs are paid less than half what a teacher earns. If you took say 2 classes of 30 in theory you could fund 3 classes of 20, but without the TAs. But - there is no room/space for them to do that. I've never heard of schools with empty classrooms - so it's a largely academic debate.
Removing TA funding will negatively impact the quality of teaching and learning - little debate imho. |
Thanks for the explanation. I hadn’t considered how it allows kids needing extra support to be integrated. Sounds perfectly sensible and better value than increasing teacher numbers alone. I paid attention tonight picking up from after school club, and it was al TAs running that too (I think - I don’t distinguish between TAs and teachers, which I why I’ve never really considered it before). |  |
