Why, despite decades of education policy and investment, do so many working-class children continue to experience unequal educational outcomes?
In this episode of Our Voice, Our Future, powered by Breadline Africa, Prof Eric Atmore and Prof Jonathan Jansen have an honest and wide-ranging conversation about the relationship between education policy, poverty and the lived experience of children.
If we have policies, programmes, educators and organisations working to improve children’s lives, why are so many working-class children still being left behind?
Eric Atmore and Jonathan Jansen examine what happens when policy meets the reality of poverty, inequality, schools and communities — and consider what needs to change if South Africa is to create better educational opportunities for every child.
This isn’t simply a conversation about schools.
It’s a conversation about children, opportunity, inequality and the future of South Africa.
