If you had five minutes to sell the further education sector to the prime minister, the chancellor of another important stakeholder, what would you want to say? In his comment piece for Tes yesterday, Association of Colleges chief executive David Hughes asked how you would get across the vital roles that colleges play and the challenges they face - and the sector took to social media to respond. 

Federation of Awarding Bodies chief executive Tom Bewick would question the chancellor on FE finance, while others set out the role of colleges in adult education. 

Background: 5 minutes with Boris Johnson - what would you say?

Covid catch-up: 77 per cent of 16-18s performing below expectations

FE Heroes: ‘The pandemic has led to real connections’

Darren Hankey, principal of Hartlepool College, found a humorous way to highlight the continuous policy change and constant ebb and flow of support for the sector.
