Education should be a passport - to work, to life, to further study. But too many young people are still being shut out.

I think education should be about what you can do, and not what you can’t do.
Read my full piece in @theobserveruk where I set out my vision for reforming England's education system - from tackling the SEND crisis to reimagining what success looks like beyond exams.

A @BritishVogue photoshoot and feature is a pinch yourself moment! (One of the very few things I’ve done that has impressed my 16 year old daughter!)
Thanks to @aliceTTimes for a lovely interview and Charlotte Hadden for the great photos.

Since the Grenfell Tower, 419 purpose-built blocks of flats have been emptied of residents after a prohibition notice from the fire service.
Often this process is traumatic (and expensive) for those involved.
Could we do it better?

Hannah Hampton has no depth perception. She had multiple operations on her eyes before she was 5 years old. She was told she’d never play professional sport. What she’s just done defies description, medical science, anything else you can name. A phenomenal human being. 🥲

In the new Cabinet… Parrs Wood High School in Didsbury, Manchester, appears to be Labour’s equivalent of Eton… (it was threatened with closure when my sister was there in the 80s… and then rebuilding was only funded by selling the playing fields to a ten pin bowling alley…

Yes two of us in the Cabinet went to the same comprehensive school in Manchester - pretty amazing really.
I’m currently a parent there too!

Disappointed when we still see adverts for “experienced 6/7 year olds wanted for teams”
As a general rule 6 and 7 year olds still believe in Santa Claus and the Easter bunny.
So they probably haven’t got a 7 year professional playing CV they can produce.
