A real joy to visit Oxted School for a good discussion on teacher recruitment, retention, and resilience in pupils with Executive Principal Anne-Louise Payne, and Louise Lee and Nichola Euridge from the Howard Partnership Trust.
If there’s one thing I’ve learnt from visiting schools across East Surrey, it’s that students always ask the best questions. I sat down with people from Year 7 to Sixth Form to talk about my unconventional route into politics, the policymaking process, and issues ranging from climate change to the monarchy.
