Back Labour’s plan to help students access online education

As most children will be learning remotely until February half-term, Labour is calling for the Government to adopt its plan to get every child online and every school supported to deliver digital excellence.

Labour’s proposals would see mass roll-out of devices and internet access to pupils currently struggling to learn online, alongside steps such as ‘zero-rating’ of educational websites to ensure data charges are not putting barriers on access to education during lockdown.
