![]() The next guest on tonight's edition of Politics Hub With Sophy Ridge is the SNP's Westminster leader, Stephen Flynn. "Of course there's much more work to be done and we're all committed to that, but meantime, I think we're doing as well as we possibly can." "In Scotland, we have an education system that we're proud of," he adds, pointing to Scottish universities in particular. Sophy points out that the SNP has been in power in Scotland for well over a decade, and Mr Flynn says: "Every effort is being made to improve educational attainment in Scotland."Īsked if he wants to apologise to parents who may feel let down by the SNP, he ignores the question and says: "What we should be doing is focusing on making sure that kids have the best opportunities in life." Sophy Ridge turns to the Pisa results, which show a long-term decline in education standards in Scotland, with children lagging behind particularly in maths and science.Īsked if the SNP - which runs the education system in Scotland - takes responsibility for that, its Westminster leader, Stephen Flynn, says it "predates" his party's leadership and "goes back to the Labour and Lib Dem coalition".
