Join me as I host David Willetts, my former colleague in government as Universities Minister, now in the Lords and Chairman of the Resolution Foundation; Shakira Martin, twice elected President of the National Union of Students and a student who graduated the hard way: a black single mum working her way through FE college to graduation, now in charge of Student Experience at a college in South East London; and Deborah Streatfield who has done pioneering work with teenagers from disadvantaged backgrounds in careers development.

In this episode, we discuss the short and long term impact on Covid on the student experience.
