Helena Kennedy
Description
Civil Liberties champion and Queen's Counsel Helena Kennedy talks to former Education Secretary Estelle Morris about her experiences with young people and why she feels some are still being failed by the education system. We hear about her work in education through her reports as well as the Helena Kennedy Foundation, which offers a second chance at higher education for people in challenging circumstances. Estelle also questions Helena on her recent report on disengagement in politics, especially among young people, and asks what role teachers and schools can play in reversing this trend.
