more, and why, subjects, over 6500 more, and why, to support high standards we will reform ofsted so that it works for parents and children once more. safeguarding reviews should happen every year. and parents deserve a clearer picture on how their children are being educated, not a one—word judgment, a whole dashboard. this is the formula. effective accountability, high—quality teaching, a curriculum that prepares you for life and work. that's what labour will deliver. high standards for all our children. applause so, five barriers we can tear down. a new plan for a new future. the road to respect and shattering the

class ceiling. you know, in somers town, in my constituency, one of the poorest areas in london, kids can look out of their window down at king's cross and granary square and see out of the glittering world of opportunity. construction everywhere, global technology firms, a whole new city being builtjust a mile away. but one that can be also distance to them. almost a nether world. —— one that can feel so distant. i want them to see themselves there and for that to feel natural, whatever their race or background, to think that they belong and success belongs to them. but in this country, your circumstances don't hold you back, you don't have to change who you are just to get on.

this isn't a zero—sum game. if we grow the talents of every person in this country, that benefits everyone. think about it, the sharp elbows, the all consuming fear of failure, the ladder pulling. it all springs from the same well as my dad is feeling of disrespect. a rational response perhaps to the rungs of opportunity moving further and further apart, opportunity moving further and furtherapart, but opportunity moving further and further apart, but an inequality that exhausts people and this country, and unravels the obligations we hold to each other. this is what my political project, my mission is about. if we do shatter the class ceiling, that is the prize. a nation once again a community. a country where we share a stake in every child, notjust our own. britain with its future back, united, moving forward, standing

tall, they deliver security, bags aspiration, opportunity foralland aspiration, opportunity for all and truly believes aspiration, opportunity foralland truly believes that the future will be better for its children. truly believes that the future will be betterfor its children. thank you very much! applause that concludes a speech by the leader of the opposition, sir keir starmer. his latest speech, this one laying out his vision for education and a reformed education system, promising among other things to tear down barriers to opportunity and to fight against the idea that background equals destiny. he's also pledged to tax private schools,. better speaking skills, and the ability to communicate among others. —— foster better speaking skills. we should mention the speech was interrupted by protesters, interru pted by protesters, environmental interrupted by protesters,

environmental protesters, pushing for a green new deal. let's listen in to some questions now.- for a green new deal. let's listen in to some questions now. about your reforms, in to some questions now. about your reforms. but — in to some questions now. about your reforms, but they _ in to some questions now. about your reforms, but they have _ in to some questions now. about your reforms, but they have also _ in to some questions now. about your reforms, but they have also said - reforms, but they have also said that it _ reforms, but they have also said that it needs significant additional investment, which will be needed for schools _ investment, which will be needed for schools. that they need more resources _ schools. that they need more resources. will you commit to more investment— resources. will you commit to more investment for schools and education ahead _ investment for schools and education ahead of— investment for schools and education ahead of the next general election, to fulfil_ ahead of the next general election, to fulfil your mission, beyond what you have _ to fulfil your mission, beyond what you have already set out to? the a- roach you have already set out to? the approach i _ you have already set out to? the approach i have _ you have already set out to? tia: approach i have taken in you have already set out to? ti2 approach i have taken in this mission and all our missions is to set out the change we need to make, and why we need to make it. in this case, removing those barriers to opportunity. where that involves money, as this mission does, to explain how much and where it will come from. obviously, getting rid of the tax breaks for private schools, the tax breaks for private schools, the vat does yield is over £6 million, and we will use that for

the initiatives, including recruiting new teachers, including the retention payments for existing teachers, and to create the framework in which they are better respected. that is the approach we have taken. on the broader question of funding, what i would say is look, the labour government always takes education seriously. it is now possible to compare these 13 years with the 13 years under a labour government, and you can see the difference, the emphasis on education and the quality of education. that's why is it what i did about the last labour government. as we get closer to an election, we will set out in even greater detail, ourfunding. we greater detail, our funding. we can't greater detail, ourfunding. we can't hide from the fact we will inherit a bow damaged the economy after 13 years of failure. we can't hide the fact we will inherit a failed public services, which are on their knees, after 13 years of neglect, and we have to take hard decisions, but we will set that out as we go forward, and bearing in mind, and hold in your mind, just what the lastly big admitted on education. thank you beth, and chris, can i come to you? tomorrow

negotiations, so get in the room, negotiate and sort this out and get our schools working. robert preston. you mentioned in your speech, school buildings _ you mentioned in your speech, school buildings that are crumbling, it equipment that is obsolete and not fit for— equipment that is obsolete and not fit for purpose. all the stats show puinc _ fit for purpose. all the stats show public servants in schools and hospitals _ public servants in schools and hospitals and the civil service i've all massively behind the private sector— all massively behind the private sector since 2010. one of your constant — sector since 2010. one of your constant refrains is that there is no money— constant refrains is that there is no money to coin a phrase. but i think— no money to coin a phrase. but i think what— no money to coin a phrase. but i think what people would like to know is if you _ think what people would like to know is if you win, the next election, when _ is if you win, the next election, when would you hope that there will be money— when would you hope that there will be money to invest seriously in public— be money to invest seriously in public services? and secondly, one of your— public services? and secondly, one of your announcements today that doesn't _ of your announcements today that doesn't require money is changing the national curriculum. a general

without making any alterations to tax, so that has to be the central driving force. i have to say that would not everything we need to do is all about money. some of the reforms are not about money, whether in education or health, which i was speaking about the other will be, and there are things that we can do now, that we are sitting out here. on the curriculum, look, we are determined to do this review and change our curriculum. we need to do that in a thoughtful way, and a way that in a thoughtful way, and a way that brings the country with it. this is not the sort of thing you should do for two three years, and change back a couple years later. it has to be part of a national debate and consensus about what we go next. the case for change is compelling. i have set out the principles that we would want to underpin the review, but i do think it is best at that review is done in government, when we had the ability to bring everybody together, behind what is be a really important change in our education system. thank you, robert. i happy peter walkerfrom education system. thank you, robert_ i happy peter walker from the

goes up, because in the end, that is the way to deal with poverty. poverty is the foundation if you like, along with others, in which these missions, or getting rid of poverty, is the condition in which these missions are set. so in each mission, there are strands on poverty, as in this mission. but the resolve to deal with poverty will be just as great with an incoming labour government as it was in the last labour government. thank you, peter. elizabeth from the mirror. the labour government in wales, andy burnhanr, _ the labour government in wales, andy burnham, siddique khan, the teaching unions _ burnham, siddique khan, the teaching unions under recent poll showed 89% of labour— unions under recent poll showed 89% of labour member support expanding free school— of labour member support expanding free school meals to primary school children. _ free school meals to primary school children. as — free school meals to primary school children, as a way to ensure kids don't _ children, as a way to ensure kids don't go — children, as a way to ensure kids don't go hungry and boost attainment. why won't you commit to it? , , ., ., , attainment. why won't you commit to it? , ., , it? this is a healthy debate in the country and _ it? this is a healthy debate in the country and the _ it? this is a healthy debate in the country and the labour _ it? this is a healthy debate in the country and the labour party, - it? this is a healthy debate in the | country and the labour party, and obviously, a number of councils and

on it. vertically on the £28 billion, which is a huge amount to invest for the future. —— particularly on the £28 million. i don't accept the framing, and i think most people look at that mission and say, if we can achieve that ambition, that is the route to lower bills, to energy security, because people like vladimir putin will be able to put his boot on our throats, and to the next generation of skills, and jobs that are so vital, and of course, what we need to do in order to meet our net zero obligations, so i think that is a very ambitious mission, and not many people who heard that speech, or looked at that mission said to me, you're not going far enough. most of them said, that is going to be a very hard thing to achieve, but if you can achieve it, the prize is fantastic. so, i don't accept that framing, i am afraid.— fantastic. so, i don't accept that framing, i am afraid. bobby wood from the i- _ framing, i am afraid. bobby wood from the i. you _ framing, i am afraid. bobby wood from the i. you said _ framing, i am afraid. bobby wood from the i. you said earlier- framing, i am afraid. bobby wood from the i. you said earlier this i from the i. you said earlier this year. _ from the i. you said earlier this year. the — from the i. you said earlier this year, the labour would move on from

a big thing for me and my family, —— the first in my family. equally, i want people to take the vocational route, the technical skills, the apprenticeships, and put it to be equally valued. therefore, this issue of tuition fees as part of the argument, but it cannot be construed in any way, i think is the whole of the arguments, because that would leave out of account all of the people who don't go to university, so we will set out our plans, and in due course. and we are constrained. when i say, and i have said this a number of times now, that the country, the economy that we inherit if we are privileged enough to come into power, the economy will be damaged really badly damaged, really badly damaged, this is not 1997, when the economy was growing. this is a badly damaged the economy, after 13 years of very little growth, exacerbated by that kamikaze budget. with public services not on their knees put on their face, that

means that we will have to take difficult decisions, and we may not be able to do all the things that an incoming labour government would want to do as quickly as we would like to do, because that is what we inherit. what i am setting out is the basis on which we will take our country forward, and the change that people can expect to see after five years. the idea of a mission is the sense of driving purpose. so we don't get knocked off course. so that we can measure against it. and so that we can take priorities and decisions about priorities in a consistent and coherent way. and frankly, if we had anything like the strategy and certainty that i'm setting out now in the last 13 years, we wouldn't be in the utter mess we are in. we are going round and round in circles, chopping and changing, complete failure. five prime ministers, poor chancellors in the last year. this may be politically amusing, for the future

security of the country, it is a disaster, and the sooner we can get rid of it, the better. —— four chancellors. thank you very much. that concludes the question and answer session with sir keir starmer. the opposition leader, following a major speed she has just given on education, where he has set out a very bold vision for education. calling for a reformed system. he wants to tear down barriers to opportunity. he said, and the snobbery in education, the sheep and goats mentality. let's just cross live now, going back to the breaking news that we had referenced earlier. we are getting reports of a land rover vehicle being involved in a collision with a primary school building in wimbledon, in south—west london.

officers and the london ambulance service are out at the scene, and we are aware of several casualties so far. let's get more on this, and cross live to the newsroom. what's more information do you have? this cross live to the newsroom. what's more information do you have? as you sa , more information do you have? as you say. details — more information do you have? as you say. details are — more information do you have? as you say, details are still— more information do you have? as you say, details are still coming _ more information do you have? as you say, details are still coming in, - say, details are still coming in, and the police are calling it an ongoing incident at the moment. but we do know that a car believed to be a land rover has crashed into a primary school in the wimbledon area of south—west london. police say they were called just before ten o'clock this morning. i want to read you post between trent merton the police, who are the area that area that cover that area where the school is. they say that officers are responding to an incident at a primary school in camp road, in wimbledon. we were called at 0954, to report that car collided with a building at the school. several
