Unlocking potential: a review of education in prison

In September 2015, the then Secretary of State for Justice Michael Gove, asked Dame Sally Coates to conduct a review into prison education and to make recommendations for how it could be improved. The review report, published on 18th May 2016 makes 31 recommendations, 17 of which are listed as key. The government has accepted them all. This briefing summarises the main themes from the review and its recommendations, and includes a timeline for implementation.
