The Only Way Is Wessex: Education, Opportunity & the Future of Young People with MP Tessa Munt

In this episode of The Only Way Is Wessex, we are joined by our local Member of Parliament Tessa Munt for a wide ranging conversation on education, opportunity, and the role of politics in shaping the lives of young people across Wessex. The discussion explores proposed SEND reforms and their potential impact on families, whether England’s education system is still fit for purpose in a rapidly changing world, and what meaningful reform could look like from a policymaker’s perspective. Tessa also shares her vision for a more inclusive and effective education system, reflects on the challenges facing youth employment, and offers practical advice for young people interested in pursuing careers in politics and public service. The episode closes with a powerful reminder that politics is not distant or abstract, it directly shapes schools, communities, and futures, encouraging young listeners to engage, question, and get involved.
