This week, we've got the PM's new initiative, Building Britain's Future. Also, we've got Lord Mandelson talking about his view of education in The Guardian, new economic data, some interesting news on education and economic development in Africa, and the latest in the challenges to the BNP.
Also, a number of FE leaders received honours for the Queen's Birthday (all of whom we heartily congratulate).
