Andrew Marr discusses the three pillars of Labour’s education mission, what it means for Labour’s development, and Britain at large. Subscribe here:    / @newstatesman   Nearly three in five poll voters agree that “nothing in Britain works anymore” and a fifth believe “politics is completely unable to resolve any of Britain’s big problems”. With a “palpable lack of hope in British politics” ahead of the election, can the launch of Labour’s education mission produce the hope this country needs? Andrew Marr, political editor for the New Statesman, discusses the three pillars of Labour’s education mission: early years education, a richer curriculum, and a new deal for teachers. He argues that “oracy” (encouraging kids to speak confidently and fluently in public) is a “really important engine of social mobility”.
