School days. Jacqui Smith. 2
Description
Schools minister Jacqui Smith reveals all about her time at school in Malvern. She says the support of her parents and teachers helped her to win a place at Oxford - she was the first pupil from her school to do so. Journalist Steve Richards is given access to Ms Smith's school reports, which reveal her early political ambitions and her engagement in school activities and debates. She explains how she became active in local politics from the age of seven, discusses whether she deserved her milk monitor's badge and outlines how her own experience at school shaped her policies as Schools Minister today.
