In the North, the Belfast Telegraph also leads with the fallout of the Oasis ticket sales.

The Irish News leads with the polio vaccination campaign in Gaza.

 

Education matters and foreign issues feature heavily on the front pages of Monday’s UK newspapers.

The Daily Telegraph focuses on the scrapping of one-word Ofsted ratings for schools, in favour of report cards, after pressure from teachers’ unions.

The end of one-word ratings also dominates the front of the Metro, which describes the immediate change as a “big U-turn”.

The Daily Mirror also concentrates on schools, reporting on a 25 per cent rise in pupils being sent home for racist behaviour in the last year.

Labour is in the sights of the Daily Mail, which says the UK government is “scaring off big business”, and Daily Express which says winter fuel payments were stopped to prevent a run on the pound.

Other titles look further afield, The Guardian carrying a picture of six hostages killed in Gaza as it says thousands of protesters took to the streets of Israel following their discovery, ramping up the pressure on Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu ahead of a proposed general strike.

The Times also carries a picture of the six hostages as it focuses on victories for German nationalists in the eastern state of Thuringia, saying the results have broken a “political taboo that dates from the fall of the Nazis”.

The same story features on the front of the Financial Times, which says voters have quit the centre ground in favour of the Alternative for Germany party.

The Independent gives over its front page for a picture of a Ukrainian tank on the road to Russia as part of a report from “behind enemy lines with Zelensky’s forces”.

And the Daily Star concentrates on the criticism of inflated ticket prices for Oasis reunion concerts.

The New York Times leads with the deaths of the Israeli hostages in Gaza.
