    The Education Brief: Wednesday 4 March 2026 - Top stories include: Tes analysis suggests that, at current rates, full academisation could take decades.

    The Education Brief: Wednesday 21 January 2026 - Top stories include: All school staff will receive SEND and inclusion training, backed by £200 million from the DfE.
