Nice to see #Batley with some positive headlines for a change. Its been interesting to watch. Yes, it's mostly food stuff, but once you get a critical mass of folk going for lunch, etc, it works.

Not a good look for @educationgovuk and @ukhomeoffice to be disagreeing publicly like this. But whether through guidance or other means, schools need to be better protected and supported in situations like #Batley and #Kettlethorpe.
