Labour has a plan for our schools.  A plan for high and rising standards for every child.

Because after 14 years of Tory failure, our children deserve better.

Labour will:

Deliver high and rising standards in early education

• With childcare that delivers life chances for children as well as work choices for parents
• Boosting early language skills and spotting children who need support sooner

Support all our children to achieve and thrive

• With free breakfast clubs in every primary school, driving up attendance and standards
• Mental health support in schools & communities for all our young people
• Improving how data is shared to pick up special educational needs and disabilities earlier

Create a better system for inspecting and improving our schools

• End single word Ofsted judgements and bring in report cards with annual checks on safeguarding and attendance
• Inspect multi-academy trusts as well as schools themselves
• Introduce a new focus on improving schools with new regional teams to drive better outcomes for children

Enable school staff to help our children to succeed

• With over 6,500 more teachers in schools
• All new teachers to be qualified
• A new national voice for school support staff
• A Teacher Training Entitlement for all our teachers
• Everyone in our schools treated with the respect they deserve.

Prepare young people for their futures

• With a broader and richer curriculum and a full review of how it’s assessed
• A strong core of literacy and numeracy alongside access to sports and arts subjects
• A new focus on speaking and listening skills
• Ensuring all our children have the digital skills they need

Equip young people with experiences to get them ready for work and ready for life 

• With professional careers guidance in all our schools & colleges
• Two weeks’ worth of work experience for all students

We want to work with you to deliver a Labour Government so we can make this plan a reality.
