A couple weeks ago I had the opportunity to speak at our local headteachers conference. Here, I discussed the importance of youth voice in schools and fed back ideas from our local youth cabinet about how teachers can make a more inclusive, meaningful and supportive environment.

When will the government understand that the pressure from A-Levels, GCSE's and SATs is too much? And does not equal the grades at the end! RIP Lucas

Had the brilliant opportunity last night to do a last minute speech at a Wigan constituency labour party event! So privileged to be able to be a voice for young people in Wigan and Leigh. Thank you very much Lisa Nandy MP Lucy Powell MP and Cllr Laura Flynn

73% of teachers agree with Izzy that reformed GCSEs have had a detrimental impact on wellbeing. This & a plethora of stats alongside give her the solid evidence base, not those who dismiss her voice. Many are listening Izzy &I think we'll see change. markinstyle.co.uk/exam-stress-st…

Incredible opener for CMC as Izzy Garbutt takes apart the education system -this was the speech to the Youth parliament that inspired her invitation to CMC23 #tcmc youtube.com/watch?v=VKrpYo…
