Abstract
This article outlines the damage done by more than a decade of Conservative education policy and offers a set of arguments by which Labour could win support for a radical reconfiguration of formal education in England. It sets out elements from the Socialist Educational Association’s Manifesto for Education in an attempt to inspire a bolder and more thoroughgoing approach than the Labour Party currently offers. Finally, it argues a fully comprehensive education system should be Labour’s goal.
