The Great Education Debate We believe that it is time for everyone with a stake in education to have a say about the future our schools and colleges policy - employers, parents, young people, academics, politicians, teachers, school and college leaders. We want to create a vision and a plan that everyone can sign up to. ASCL will play a leading role but it is not our debate. We need your views.
About In 1976, Lord Callaghan’s famous Ruskin College speech initiated ‘the great debate’ about the future of our education service. Many of those issues are relevant today. Surely, it is now time for a second ‘great debate’ that involves everyone with a stake in education. We need a workable overarching plan for our education service, with clear success criteria agreed by all. ASCL will play a leading role but it is not only our debate. Employers, parents, young people, academics, politicians, educational institutions, school and college leaders – all parties will have to listen, compromise and take on board the legitimate views of others. And that includes us
