00:00So I want to make sure that all young people have got access to high quality careers guidance
00:04and also two weeks worth of work experience. Too many young people aren't getting the expert
00:09advice that they need in order to make really good choices about the future, about the careers
00:13and opportunities that are out there. And Labour's plan is to end the tax breaks that
00:17private schools enjoy and to invest that money in our schools and colleges. And one area
00:21where we'll put extra resource is on making sure that all young people have access to
00:26high quality careers guidance and work experience. Labour government will reset and rebuild that
00:30relationship between government and schools but we can only do that if we form the next
00:35government and that requires people to go out and vote for the change that I know right
00:39across our schools and with families too they want that to happen but in order to do it
00:43people have to vote for it.
