REVEALED: Erica Stanford On Social Media Ban Before 2027 Election

Duncan sits down with Education Minister Erica Stanford for a straight-up conversation about what’s gone wrong in our schools and what’s finally being done to fix it. From the state of maths and literacy to why thousands of kids are leaving school without qualifications, Erica lays out the reforms already underway. New curricula, textbooks back in classrooms, an hour of maths a day, and tens of thousands of teachers retrained to teach the basics properly. They also dig into the phone ban, student behaviour, truancy, and the next big move on social media and under-16s. It’s a blunt, sometimes uncomfortable discussion about failure, responsibility, and why getting kids learning properly early actually changes everything. Learn more about your ad choices.
