Is University Really The Key To A Good Life? - Madeleine Holt
Madeleine Holt is a filmmaker, entrepreneur and campaigner in education. Formerly culture correspondent on BBC Newsnight, she makes films about innovative, community-minded comprehensive schools through her enterprise, Schools on Screen. She runs the pioneering Meet the Parents project in North London, encouraging all families to support their local, non-selective secondary schools. In 2019 she won the Fred and Anne Jarvis Award for education campaigning, subsequently won by Marcus Rashford.
In this conversation, Madeleine and I talk about her career as a BBC journalist, her transition from journalism to education activism, what innovation in education can look like, the drawbacks of the current English education system and whether university really is the key to a successful career and life.
If you've got school age kids (and even if you haven't!), this is a must-watch.
