but first we are joined by kevin courtney, joint general secretary of the national education union.gavin williamson has gone. he really had lost the confidence of teachers and head teachers, i think of many parents, in fact i think the prime minister should have acted sooner on this matter. you know, gavin williamson really wouldn't engage with us during covid, when we were making sensible suggestions that could have made schools safer, and therefore kept them open longer, he wouldn't engage with us to talk about our plan b on exams, which meant far too many... the c02 monitors we had been pressing for, he didn't move on that until very late on, so they won't get into schools until very late this term. that may lead to more disruption in our schools, because those mitigations aren't in place. so, like i say, i think gavin williamson had lost the confidence of teachers and head teachers. we are open to working with whoever is appointed next. we want someone who can work with us to get the money from the treasury for education recovery that we really need, that can work with us on sch
