My thoughts are with His Majesty.
So very brave of King Charles to tell the world about his diagnosis. I have no doubt that this will help others with cancer, and lead to greater understanding.
As ever, our King puts others before himself.
Wishing him a full recovery.

Great to hear from the

, education experts &amp; groups who care about children.
Those who attend school regularly do MUCH better than those who don’t.
Looking forward to 2nd reading of my School Attendance Bill on Fri &amp; supporting missing children back to school.

This is a really important step which I hope will help us better understand &amp; improve the educational experience for children and young people with Down's Syndrome.

RT by @vickyford: We are driving up standards in our schools.

Under the Conservatives 89% of schools are rated good or outstanding; under Labour, that number was down at 68%.

We have a plan to give children across the country a world-class education. Labour would take us back to square one.
