Financial literacy is incredibly important and I'm really pleased to be working with @RishiSunak on this. We're renewing our curriculum to ensure young people leave school ready for work and ready...

Alongside cracking down on hidden costs, we're bringing accessible, affordable childcare to your fingertips. Our handy new childcare tracker gives you personalised advice on what support you're en...

Thanks to the efforts of this Labour government, families are saving an average of £8,000 on their childcare hours. But I know too many parents are still being stung by 'top up fees'. It's not acc...

Labour is opening up access to subjects that have been the preserve of a privileged few for too long. We're investing in school sport & overhauling the system to end the postcode lottery. Lev...

Across the country, free breakfast clubs are saving parents £450 and boosting children’s life chances. Will Reform councils back Nigel Farage in his attempt to close these clubs, pinch money from ...

This government is overhauling a broken SEND system that failed children. We want every child to have the right support in local schools, without having to fight for it. We'll learn from internati...

Another landmark moment in the UK-Ukraine 100-Year Partnership: meeting Minister @KudriavetsUA to discuss strengthening our countries' ties through education — in a celebration of our lasting commi...

Happy to help you out, Saqib. There was no payment, I got Gemma a couple of cans of Red Bull but that was it. I really enjoyed chatting to her about why school matters for all our children.

So pleased to welcome new @DHSCgovuk Secretary of State, @jamesmurray_ldn, to the DfE where we met with parents & campaigners today. Building a system to better support children with SEND will...

At Gillas Lane Primary, the new free breakfast club is delivering calmer classrooms, higher standards and happier children. Labour is rolling out breakfast clubs across England to give every chil...

Enjoyed Kemi’s quip about free breakfast clubs being a defining legacy of this Labour government. When the Tories deride breakfast clubs, it shows how out of touch they still are. A £450 saving i...

The Tories haven't tabled a debate on education for the King's Speech. I wonder why? Maybe they don't want to talk about all the things Labour are doing to give children growing up in our country ...

We delivered the biggest piece of child protection legislation in a generation. Now Labour's Education For All Bill will support children with SEND to get the support they need more quickly, close...

Sickening racism from one of Reform’s Sunderland councillors and they can’t even get their act together to throw him out.

We have delivered good, Labour things – action on child poverty, strengthening workers’ rights, protections for renters. But we can’t and we shouldn’t pretend the status quo is working. To stop R...

Britain cannot afford to keep treating talent as a postcode lottery. We must listen to voters and restore hope where it has been missing for far too long. Our education missions in coastal commun...
