Mike Baker reports on the new developments in education since the formation of the coalition government, and how these will affect teachers.
Mike investigates the initial reactions to the Queen’s speech and provides in-depth analysis of the immediate post-election education policy and budget announcements.
He asks which bits of the Conservative and Liberal Democrat manifestos have made it into the coalition’s education policy? And which parts of the last government’s policy have been lost for good?
Mike hears from school leaders, including John Dunford and Chris Keates, and visits a primary school that is considering taking up the new fast-track route to academy status.
