Robin Bevan, of National Education Union, mocks education secretary at annual conference
The president of the UK’s biggest teaching union has compared the education secretary to Pinocchio, saying Gavin Williamson was “limp and spineless” as he attacked him for his actions during the pandemic.
Robin Bevan, the incoming president of the National Education Union and head teacher of Southend high school in Essex, said that, like the famous puppet, Williamson was also failing to tell the truth, particularly about the need for examinations.
