Universities will be required to publish the drop-out rate and graduate job outcomes on every advert they put out for a degree, in the same way loans have to be upfront about APR, under plans being considered by the Education Secretary

'We should be encouraging more students to do T-Levels and apprenticeships - in contrast to most students who go to university and do not get good graduate jobs despite the great whacking loans they take out.'

I like a massage wherever I am in the world.
When I'm doing TV shows, I am often in really weird positions - crawling through tombs or hanging off the edges of ancient sites. So a massage is my treat to myself. I will spend anything from £35 to £135. I have about four a year.

I bought that white jacket when I was about 30 because I suddenly thought, this is ridiculous, I've got to sometimes buy new clothes.
The first time I wore the jacket was for the wrap party of the TV series I'd been doing. A colleague fell over and cut her wrist on a glass and I took her to hospital. She was fine, but there was a lot of blood and my jacket was ruined. I took that incident as a sign that I shouldn't have bought it.

Most California school districts lifted their masks mandates earlier this week, although San Diego Unified School District will wait to drop their mandate until students return from spring break on April 4.

'People who have tried to predict what's going to happen in the future in this pandemic have repeatedly found egg on their face, as they say, and I'm not going to do that here today,' he said at a COVID briefing in Queens on Friday.

While masks will no longer be required inside Los Angeles Unified School District buildings, students and staff will receive PCR tests through the end of the school year, and at-home rapid COVID tests will be provided to students and staff 'for baseline testing prior to the beginning of the 2022 Spring break'

The Los Angeles Unified School District, the nation's second-largest public school district in the nation, announced Friday that it will lift face-covering requirements for students and staff - a day after New York City's health commissioner said children under five will be masked 'indefinitely' at school. 

People shouldn't feel they have to go to university' adding that vocational routes should not be seen as just 'hard hats and high vis jackets' but also highly technical professions including working on film sets.

Meanwhile, although New York City lifted its indoor mask mandate on March 7, newly-minted health commissioner Dr. Ashwin Vasan said Friday that masking public school children under five in the city is 'indefinite at this point.'

Also, I work hard to earn my money and I like to know what I'm spending it on. Somehow, putting my money out into the big investment world doesn't feel like what I want to do with it. I want to see what I'm buying. 

In a December letter, US Secretary of Education Miguel Cardona urged school administrators across the country to "use resources from the $122 billion made available through the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021 to ensure that students have access to the teachers and other critical staff they need to support their success during this critical period." He cited surveys that showed severe staffing shortages and difficulties hiring qualified teachers. 

However the plan is controversial and others want a softer version of pupils needing to have passed either Maths or English at GCSE or have a minimum of two Es at A-Level to be able to attend university.

When a teacher quits, she noted, students end up being taught by less experienced teachers, which may result in kids learning less. Parents frustrated by the erosion of the learning environment, she added, may consider private school or homeschooling instead.

They grew up during the war and believed in being self-sufficient.
They would grow vegetables and bake their own bread. My father, in particular, never took anything for granted. He did not know his father and he provided for himself from the age of 15 when his mother died. So I was brought up with a sense that money should never be wasted. 

"The salary and level of appreciation are much lower than what we deserve," said J.M., one of the Austin schoolteachers. "Last year, the year we were teaching online, I ended up teaching four extra classes from February through May. I was compensated for only one of those."

Money was never the reason she left. "I was OK with [earning] $55,000 and I loved my job every day and seeing those kids every day. Sure, it'd be great to make $80,000 a year for it, but that's not why I was doing it."
