Read excerpt
The number of people claiming Personal Independence Payments (Pip) in England and Wales has hit a record high, according to new government figures. As of July, just over four million people were entitled to claim the benefit, compared to 3.83 million the previous year, an increase of 7%, data from the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) showed. Pip is designed to support people with the extra costs of being disabled or living with long-term physical or mental health conditions, and eligibilit
'Relentless' GCSE resit cycle 'simply not working', union says (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The "relentless" cycle of pupils in England failing and then resitting their GCSEs in maths and English is "simply not working", a leading education union has said.

Read excerpt
A record number of UK 18-year-olds have been accepted into university this year, according to the Universities and Colleges Admissions Service (Ucas).

Nick Hillman, chief executive of the Higher Education Policy Institute (Hepi), said the top institutions were "hoovering up all the crumbs" when it came to the top students, even if they had not met the grades they
