Early meeting in this rather lovely building off #FleetStreet. I thought it must be a former newspaper office because of the huge ground floor windows (once used to bring in rolls of newsprint) and turns out it was the original Northcliffe House, once home of @DailyMailUK

One of better articles on @educationgovuk's #summerborn report. @EleanorHarding please see 5 key issues with report here: summerbornchildren.org/2018/… @sb_campaign

Appreciate @MailOnline acknowledging that most children are aged 4 when they start school; so many media reports talk only about 5 year-olds. In fact some #summerborn children start school at age 3. @sb_campaign thank you. teapawt.net/EleanorHarding/status/…
EXCLUSIVE: My front page interview in today's Mail: @DamianHinds gives his first daily newspaper interview since becoming education secretary. He vows to tackle the tragedy of 4 and 5-year-olds arriving at school with stunted vocabulary via new schemes to help parents.

Great piece by Lord Blunkett on the power of an @OpenUniversity education teapawt.net/EleanorHarding/status/…
'My journey from being a gas board clerk to the cabinet shows why Britain needs @OpenUniversity' says Lord Blunkett writing in today's Mail. He took evening classes for 6 years to get into Sheffield Uni. #savetheOU

Took some digging and pressing to get the details of Madeleine Atkins' Hefce exit package (£178k for remainder of contract, £35k in bonuses for previous years). Obviously some would rather it stayed quiet. timeshighereducation.com/new…

“The OU is the unforeseen victim of the Coalition Governments decision to withdraw central funding”. Lots of great points in this piece by @EleanorHarding. #PartTimeMatters teapawt.net/eleanorharding/status/…

I profoundly agree with this. The Open University is one of our most valuable assets, and must be not only protected but enhanced. conservativehome.com/thecolu…

As @JustineGreening suggests in today’s @DailyMailUK, there is a precedent for a Tory to ‘save’ the OU. At Selsdon Park, Margaret Thatcher claimed the institution as ‘Thatcher University Ltd’. Taken from my article at: tandfonline.com/doi/abs/10.1… @EleanorHarding

Well overdue but never too late. By supporting #theOU you are supporting excellence in higher education, the widening of participation & social mobility. @OpenUniversity, @theresa_may, @SamGyimah teapawt.net/EleanorHarding/status/…
Good news for @OpenUniversity - @theresa_may and universities minister @SamGyimah pledge to examine support for part time students in HE review. Follows drop in students of 28pc at OU. Supporters of the institution include @NickyMorgan01 @vincecable @CBItweets and Lord Baker

Getting people to ‘learn while they earn’ is essential to social mobility and the economy. Supporting @OpenUniversity and other universities with part-time students is vital - Post-18 review a good opportunity to do this. teapawt.net/EleanorHarding/status/…

Armed police guarding Westminster Station’s new, long-awaited (and as yet unopened) @GreggsOfficial. Or maybe they just want to be first in line for a #steakbake.
