Bridget Phillipson reacts to A-Level results day

Bridget Phillipson MP, Labour’s Shadow Education Secretary, reacting to A-Level results day, said:

“Congratulations to all students receiving results today. Labour recognises the enormous effort that all of our young people have put into their studies over the past year.  

“Young people have achieved these results despite the challenges they’ve faced: with a Labour government behind them, offering them pathways to good prospects, there will be no limit on what they can achieve. 

“Under Labour, your background will be no barrier to you getting on: we will shatter the class ceiling in Britain that holds young people back and spread opportunity across our country.”
