His many learning difficulties would go ignored and untreated with teachers left alone to manage classes of thirty-five or more, with no assistants to help with students who struggle to keep up and cope with school life. No time to prepare lessons and review work. Crumbling buildings with areas of infrastructure closed because it is unsafe to teach in a hazardous environment. This is what can be expected from a Tory government.
Yes, lets view needing 100 new teachers ever year to replace those who've left as a good thing, rather than only needing 5 because the positons have been filled

My ex was a deputy head under labour, and her job changed from being able to spend time bringing in extra funding which more than covered her salary, to doing 14 hour days through increased classroom teaching and the school lost it's extra funding as she wasn't able to bring it in and the government weren't giving any extra unless you wanted it ringfenced for unrequired things.
