Ndidi worked in the formal Education sector for a number of years; first as a teacher, then at Education charity Teach First before moving on to Pearson. But it’s only since she began working in the youth sector, as CEO for UK Youth, that she realised the wealth of expertise outside of the formal education bubble. She thinks teachers and youth workers should be trained together.

 

We are joined by Reuben Moore, Executive Director for Programme Development, Teach First, and David McQueen, an international speaker and entrepreneur who has explored how young people are inspired by good leadership – not just from adults but their peers too. Together, they discuss educational inequality, teacher workloads and how there needs to be a shift in approach to the way teachers and youth workers work together.

 

This week’s #AskYouth question is: “What does youth work mean to you?” We hear from a 13-year-old and a 16-year-old who attend Wigan Youth Zone.
