for me maybe we'll go to the vision a little bit of that so you had this thing called the cultural education policy

statement sounds like Korean doesn't it really just a

that articulated that what we meant by cultural capital and why we believe it's so important because it's fundamental to social mobility and if we want to support young people to feel strong about themselves worthy of having exposure to really exciting opportunities that often sadly are only open to the most privileged and to not to feel imposter syndrome when they attend the opera or go to a cricket match or have the opportunity to do work experience and sex then we need to be developing all sorts of opportunities to widen the horizons and open the eyes of young people to experiences and maybe not naturally within their realm of experience or would be open to them by their friends and family and their social constructs within which they currently live what was on
