Speaking at the Conservative Party conference this week, the education secretary committed to a new white paper in education in the new year
It seems it will include
- plans to tackle innumeracy and illiteracy
- a deep dive, by Ofsted, to look at good practice in tackling absenteeism
- looking at ways to embed technology into the education process
- an intention for all schools to become part of a multi-academy trust
- a commitment to a review of teacher training
