		<description><![CDATA[Updated 11th December 2010
There is a new link on the DfE statistics website that projects pupil numbers through to 2018. The numbers are similarly concerning, especially when you consider that the government are directly linking numbers to migration (sheet 3). Even with zero migration there is a considerable upswing in Primary schools but there must [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Updated 29th November
The widely trailled Education White Paper (#eduwhitepaper) was launched yesterday to huge numbers of tweets. At one point &#8220;Michael Gove&#8221; was trending on twitter (about 6th most popular phrase on the social networking site!). It marks the biggest change to education in some time.
Rather than comment at this point, here is a handy [...]]]></description>

Updated 1st December 2010
White Paper focuses clearly on phonics
Section 4.16 makes explicit reference to &#8217;systematic synthetic phonics&#8217;.

Amidst the excitement of the Chilean miners being released from the San Jose mine Lord Browne released his much leaked review into university funding and tuition fees.
