This week marks the start of the rollout of this government's record expansion of childcare. By the end of our rollout, this will save working parents on average £6,900 a year, helping 60,000 more people back into work. Read more here 👇

Around 10 million adults in the UK are deaf, have hearing loss or tinnitus Yet only 150,000 people can use British Sign Language That’s why from September next year, we’re introducing the BSL GCSE to help break down barriers for the deaf community 👇

Today is #BSLDay2024 , marking the 2-year anniversary of the British Sign Language Bill which was recognised in law in 2022. It’s a great moment to look ahead to 2025 when the new BSL GCSE will be introduced in schools across the country 👇

Pay day is coming. Our second National Insurance cut hits payslips next week. It's worth £900 to someone earning the UK average salary.

The latest stats show there now record numbers of doctors and nurses in England’s NHS. I also want to see improvements to their working lives so they can focus on caring for their patients. My article for @Telegraph 👇

Hamas must send the hostages home and bring to an end the horrific ordeal of those currently being held and their loved ones. Today, alongside 17 other nations, the UK has renewed its call for the immediate release of all hostages.

Having worked in international business for 30 years, I know just how important it is to bring education and business together. Great to speak with @britishchambers about how we're transforming our skills system to spread opportunities to people across England.

What's Labour response when you say they should have a plan for childcare? "It's not our job". The @Conservatives are the only party with a plan to support families with the cost of childcare.

Labour have sniped about our childcare expansion for months, saying it wouldn't work. We've now delivered the first stage of it, with 200,000 benefitting from 15 hrs a week childcare for their 2-yr-olds. And Labour are once again exposed as having no plan, no policy and no idea

95% of schools in Finchley and Golders Green are rated good or outstanding - including @Whitefield_NW2 where I visited yesterday. With record levels of funding and a rigorous, evidence-based curriculum, we're delivering high and rising standards in schools across England.

200 days ago, Hamas carried out the deadliest attack on the Jewish people since the Holocaust. 200 days on, hostages remain in captivity, and their loved ones continue to face unimaginable suffering. Today we call on Hamas again – send the hostages home.
