Their failure to deliver on the promises that they made to support families in remote learning and home schooling is simply not good enough.

We all want schools to re-open as soon as it is safe and possible to do so, but whilst children are learning from home the Government needs to deliver.

We need a national plan to support families in lockdown.

Labour is calling for:

plan to get every child online

right to flexible furlough

cancel the cut to Universal Credit

vaccination of key workers

plan for safe return to classrooms

I spoke to Westminster Hour about government laptop provision and the need to ensure a safe return to formal education.
