Episode 240: In this special episode, Kieran Mackle is joined by the Right Honourable Sir Nick Gibb to discuss his remarkable tenure as Schools Minister and the ideas behind his new book, Reforming Lessons.

Together, they explore the political and personal journey that led him to the Department for Education, the challenges of implementing reform in the face of entrenched ideologies, and the principles that have guided his approach to raising educational standards. From the battle against low expectations to the importance of evidence-informed policy, Sir Nick offers candid reflections on more than a decade of shaping England’s education system.

This is a rare opportunity to hear from one of the most influential figures in recent education history, in his own words.
