With the interim report due soon, will the Curriculum and Assessment Review rise to its potential? - @peterhyman.bsky.social in the @financialtimes.com sets out why it’s time to be bold… www.ft.com/content/4a62...

Compelling call @peterhyman.bsky.social for a new curriculum as a “landmark legacy” with “new basics including oracy.” @voice21oracy.bsky.social And need to build a coalition “united by a powerful sense of aspiration & necessity of preparing our children for the future” www.ft.com/content/4a62...

This is very good on some of the many ways that our scandalous neglect of the 55% of British kids who don't want to go to university is coming back to bite us. From @peterhyman.bsky.social open.substack.com/pub/peterhym...

Education is the biggest divide now in politics in the US and UK. Those who don’t go to university too often feel second class. This is fuelling populism. And it has to change. @rachelsylvester.bsky.social @alisonpeacock.bsky.social @alastaircampbell2.bsky.social open.substack.com/pub/peterhym...

@peterhyman.bsky.social is good on successful politics in a superficial world - grab people's attention, tell stories that they can engage with, persuade people you can get things done (actually getting things done not so important). All bloody depressing but ... open.substack.com/pub/peterhym...

This from @morganwild.bsky.social and @peterhyman.bsky.social is excellent. Was waving a lighter in the air while reading. www.labourtogether.uk/all-reports/...

I care deeply about this from my time as a headteacher. We must go beyond the exam factory model of education and give all students proper career pathways and hope. Without it we will fuel resentment and the rise of populism. My latest Substack. open.substack.com/pub/peterhym...

Traditional communications is too bland. We need to learn from Trump about how to operate in the attention economy. Full substack here: open.substack.com/pub/peterhym...

If the centre left wants to fightback against the populists, then it needs to learn from the way Trump communicates. Because at the moment we are lame and failing to understand the attention economy. My latest Substack. open.substack.com/pub/peterhym...

And this from @peterhyman.bsky.social - we don’t necessarily want to hear it, but a lot of what he says, I think, is right. We need to listen more and patronise less

My new substack today is about how to get things done in government and the big choice facing Starmer this autumn - business as usual in Whitehall- or dynamic mission-driven task forces. open.substack.com/pub/peterhym...

Excited to have launched a new Substack - Changing the Story, where I’ll be writing about politics, education, strategy and a few other things. My first post is about what Labour should do this autumn to regain the momentum. Please subscribe and share. open.substack.com/pub/peterhym...

“We need a new ‘basics’ that includes #oracy (high-quality speaking) and digital skills … There is broad cross-party consensus that the exam system is distorting the curriculum. Radical reform is needed here too …”: @peterhyman.bsky.social @financialtimes.com [£]: www.ft.com/content/4a62...

If you're worried & feeling helpless about Trump, Farage and the populists, this is a must read. @peterhyman.bsky.social on what the liberal-left needs to do. Hint: start with a long, hard look in the mirror. www.theneweuropean.co.uk/how-you-can-...

Great piece by @peterhyman.bsky.social on why curriculum and assessment reform must be bold. This is such a huge opportunity for the government that would boost economic growth as well as life chances. Keir Starmer personally believes in it so he should seize the chance www.ft.com/content/4a62...

Join us and @policyatkings.bsky.social on 4 Feb as we discuss the role inequality is playing in fuelling populist politics, with @liambyrnemp.bsky.social, @claire-ainsley.bsky.social , @benansell.bsky.social, @hamidaali.bsky.social and @peterhyman.bsky.social 👇 fairnessfoundation.com/posts/the-re...

Thank you for this @peterhyman.bsky.social I thought this was such an honest, thorough article. You said everything that needed to be said. I agreed with 99% of it - and that’s pretty good 👏 ( for me) Thank you for taking the trouble to do this . 🙏🏼

“The disruptors channel the anger of an alienated public. The business-as-usual politician tries to reassure – ‘stick with what we know, we will get there in the end.’ But history is on the side of the disruptors”: fascinating, by @peterhyman.bsky.social: www.theneweuropean.co.uk/how-you-can-...

My piece on how we need to be the disruptors if we are to make the changes working people need and see off the far right populists. www.theneweuropean.co.uk/how-you-can-...

To understand missions, milestones, and what Keir Starmer needs to do to make all this work… Listen to this week’s @instituteforgov.bsky.social podcast with @peterhyman.bsky.social and @cathhaddon.bsky.social @jillongovt.bsky.social @njdavies.bsky.social 🎧 podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/i...

Strong public support for digital ID as six former Home Secretaries and two former PMs urge government to introduce a scheme - latest from @thetimes Crime and Justice Commission www.thetimes.com/uk/politics/...

PODCAST 🎙️ The Plans they are A-Changing @peterhyman.bsky.social joins @cathhaddon.bsky.social @njdavies.bsky.social @jillongovt.bsky.social to make sense of Starmer's Plan for Change. Plus: What can Sir Chris Wormald do to rewire the British state? www.instituteforgovernment.org.uk/podcast/insi...

Really good from @peterhyman.bsky.social. When Starmer leant into this in response to a question during the Battle for No.10 event in Grimsby it was one of his strongest moments in the campaign - time to take it into government. www.newstatesman.com/the-weekend-...

Interesting from @peterhyman.bsky.social, who devised Keir Starmer’s original 5 missions newstatesman.com/the-weekend-...
