Education, Culture and Gaelic
I am the Shadow Cabinet Secretary for Education, Culture and Gaelic and the Deputy Convener of the Education and Gaelic Committee.
Advocating for improved options and flexibility in childcare for working parents is the reason I got into politics. I was shocked by the lack of affordable options in childcare, I knew that I wanted to advocate for change.
Scotland has so much talent and so many hard working children and young people. I want every child in Scotland to achieve their full potential, despite their background, our education system must support this.
