From where I am (Suffolk, far from Liverpool), #ASCL2025 has felt brilliant - setting the education news agenda; talking about what matters (curriculum, inspection, funding, SEND), and doing it all in a characteristically thoughtful, constructive @ascl-uk.bsky.social tone. Bravo to the whole team.
The theme of the @ascl-uk.bsky.social #ASCL2025 conference was A Brighter Future. I leave today equipped with motivation, optimism and hope! Thank you for reigniting that fire of passion. #TogerherStronger @pepediiasio.bsky.social @mannybotwe.bsky.social

A great talk earlier @ascl-uk.bsky.social #ASCL2025 around the need to put inclusion front and centre- a part of the overall system not just an add on. Bravo, bravo, bravo

Sam Freedman at #ASCL2025: government departments must "tell the story" with policies - education leaders won't know what is expected of them or what the government is aiming for if the narrative isn't clear. It is unusual for there to be no white paper for the Children's Wellbeing and Schools Bill.

Fascinating - and at times alarming - to hear from @samfr.bsky.social on how government operates, navigating policymaking to fit the media cycle, hyper-centralisation, and executive control.
