Many members of the Institute of Ideas Education Forum are experts in a variety of educational fields. Here we are encouraging the writing of opinion pieces relating to recent policy reports or publications that aim to influence policy. The views of forum members may not necessarily be those of the Institute of Ideas, but are original and challenging.
If you would like to comment on a new report, please email education (replace _at_ with @). Potential contributors should note that opinion pieces should be no more than 500 words long and are peer reviewed. They do not necessarily represent the views of the IoI but should reflect what the Institute stands for (click here for details.)
