<p>‘Opportunity Areas are a whole community place-based approach to improving education. They work by bringing together the right partners to work on a common mission – improving local education’</p>

A ‘one size fits all’ approach to learning isn’t helping those in need

<p>There’s been no sign of Boris Johnson’s ‘levelling up’</p>
