A Different Vision for Education - Interview with Wes Streeting MP

The Schools & Academies Show Podcast

Feb 4 2021 • 20 mins

To kickstart the new season and to launch the programme of content for our April show, we looked back at one of the highlight sessions from last November's virtual extravaganza. On the 19th of November we were delighted to have hosted an interview with David Laws and Wes Streeting MP and there were some wider sector perspectives, a return to which seemed appropriate for the first episode of 2021. Considering a Labour vision for the schools sector, we replay snippets from the interview interlaced with some comments from us about how we hope to cover these topics more extensively at Aprils event.

Key topics covered will include:

  • The role of Ofsted during and after the pandemic
  • School Structures and the role of local authorities
  • Exams and assessments beyond 2021

💡 Wes Streeting MP,  Shadow Schools Minister, The Labour Party

💡 The Rt. Hon David Laws, Executive Chairman, Education Policy Institute

🏫 This episode was aired as a recorded video at the Schools and Academies Show Online on the 19th of November 2020.
