Fantastic to see real, impactful change happening in Brighton - @DivideClass no doubt hugely significant in driving this forward!
The Children, Young People, and Schools committee of @BrightonHoveCC has voted to approve the creation of a new priority group - children eligible for free school meals - in the secondary school admissions process in the city. We believe this is the first time this has happened.

The work I did with @AndrewDSPhil on skills was some of my favourite during my time @Demos - so pleased to see it expanding & urge anyone with relevant expertise or ideas to get involved with this ⬇️⬇️⬇️
