Congratulations to all students receiving their GCSE, Welsh Baccalaureate and other Level 2 qualification results today.
All students should feel proud of their achievements today and we congratulate them, their teachers, support staff, leaders, parents and carers for all their efforts.
The additional funding announced today is a welcome injection, but still falls short of what is needed to rebuild education, including the investment needed to reverse pay cuts and tackle sky high workload.

Labour are right to acknowledge that we need to be investing in school buildings. This £1.4 billion is a welcome first step, but more is needed.
The education sector has been devastated by fourteen years of neglect and mismanagement leaving the new Government a mountain to climb.
NEU teacher members across 32 non-academised sixth form colleges in England have taken part in today’s strike action.

The politics of austerity will only be ended in practice, not in fine words.
These international comparisons may only show part of the jeopardy facing the education system in England.

More Than a Score report makes the case that learning, not school accountability, must be at the heart of our assessment system.
