Sutton Trust comments on the resignation of Sir Kevan Collins

Commenting today on Sir Kevan Collins’ departure, Sir Peter Lampl, Founder and Executive Chair of the Sutton Trust said:

“Sir Kevan Collins is a warrior for social justice. From his role as Chief Executive of the Education Endowment Foundation he is steeped in understanding as to what works in education.

“That means it’s even sadder that government has not implemented what he advised. The stakes here are very high. Namely the future prosperity and health of our children.

“Given the derisory amount the government is prepared to invest in catch-up, Sir Kevan had no choice but to walk away.”
