Documentary by Lord Puttman on UK Education inspires debate

This landmark independent documentary inspired and guided by Lord Puttman explores the education system in the UK and asks whether the current system provides young people with opportunities to develop their talents. It offers unique insights across nations and generations and reveals a very incovenient truth about education.

Contributors include influential people such as Sir Ken Robinson, Bill Bryson and Richard Branson.
