Professor Lee Elliot Major, who is Britain's first professor of Social Mobility based at the University of Exeter, is our guest in this penultimate episode of Season 7.
In his latest book, Equity in Education, he argues for a new approach and language to improve upward mobility. In his book, children are not disadvantaged instead they are under resourced. Does language matter?
Season 7 of the We Society Podcast from the Academy of Social Sciences continues to tackle the big questions through a social science lens.
Throughout this podcast, you'll hear some of the best ideas to shape the way we live.
