Description

Education, education, education' was how Tony Blair set out New Labour's priorities in the early noughties. 

A quarter of a century on, what story is Keir Starmer trying to tell about schools under his premiership?

In this episode, Sam and Anne are joined by Laura McInerney, a former teacher and co-founder of Teacher Tapp, to break down the government's plan for education as we head into a new school year. 

They ask:
•  What will be included in the education white paper?
•  Can there be further devolution within the education system?
•  Will Bridget Phillipson remain as the education secretary? 

Sam and Anne are getting a lie-in over summer recess, but they'll be in your feed with special episodes every Monday before normal services resumes on 1 September.
