This is brilliant news - @JSTOR will now be available for free in prisons in England and Wales. That means access to 12 million academic articles, 100,000 books, and millions of images and primary source materials. Great work from @DWRM_CIC & @BPIBard 👏 ow.ly/VKVG50Ro3iG
Good to see @KPMG recognise the benefits of giving everyone – regardless of their background – the chance to succeed by recruiting people who have spent time in prison. ow.ly/7Z0e50Ro1RA
Interesting report by @RANDCorporation on prison education in the US post-Covid. Lots of similarities to what's happening here.

Join our CEO Jon Collins as he discusses what the evidence tells us about prison education, and what's needed to ensure it works. Part of the @Clinks_Tweets “A matter of fact” series, this online event takes place at 2pm on Tuesday. Book your spot here 👇 ow.ly/iQ8g50RjbWu
This new @SMFthinktank paper discusses the state of education in prisons, and why it's currently failing to support employment and reduce reoffending. The key recommendation: we need to reverse the real term spending cut in funding prison education. ow.ly/Hjzr50Rjbau
Findings in this new review that bear repeating: 1⃣ The most productive prisons are those in which people are busy for most of the day, including with education 2⃣ When what's on offer is interesting, well taught, and linked to jobs, it's more likely to attract & retain learners

"Evidence clearly shows that participating in education reduces reoffending and makes it more likely that people leaving prison will secure a job. Yet too often people are locked in their cells when they should be in a classroom or workshop." @guardian #UK theguardian.com/society/2024/m…

In 2018, @ucas_online stopped requiring applicants to disclose criminal records on their university application. Yet 6 years on, over 70% of UK universities continue to ask applicants to disclose before they can enrol. Read the concerning research here 👇 ow.ly/OAeK50R459w
"I'm now a Master of Arts, I have an agent & I am in the running to work on a high-level TV show." @LongfordTrust Scholar & @NFTSFilmTV graduate Darren traces it all back to prison and daring to believe that higher education could be for someone like him. longfordtrust.org/the-trick-is-t…
The former @guardian columnist Erwin James arrived in prison with no qualification and left with a university degree. We need to give many more people in prison the same opportunity to get the skills and qualifications they need to thrive when released. ow.ly/nopW50QZ69B

Interesting report by @RANDCorporation on prison education in the US post-Covid. Lots of similarities to what's happening here.
#Prison education disruptions prompted by the #COVID19 pandemic continue to persist, creating long-term negative impacts on instructional quality, according to a new report. bit.ly/4d9LZtr
It's shame that there doesn't seem to be anyone on the Commission with lived experience of the system as a 'service user' or from an organisation explicitly representing that viewpoint. Hope it's not too late to rectify. If it is, evidence sessions should bring in that focus.
Was struck by this quote in this briefing: "For long termers, you have the bit at the beginning, the bit at the end, and the great depression in between." Need to think about how education can provide something positive to engage with during the middle years of a long sentence.

👇The policy implications that follow are straight-forward, requiring a step-change from governors and government. Even keeping aside the link to employment outcomes, education is an important rehabilitative tool in and of itself.
Neglect of education in prisons is down to is being undervalued on multiple levels: ❌learning is paid less than work ❌an afterthought for some governors ❌education funding has not increased in five years
This is despite education being a central to rehabilitation, and key to helping prisoners gain employment post-release. Prison leavers who are in sustained employment are 9 % points less likely to reoffend within first year of release than those released who are unemployed.
Education take-up in prisons has been in decline and is still not back at even pre-pandemic levels. Quality has also suffered. In 2023, 73% of prisons were rated as “requires improvement” or “inadequate” for their education and skills provision, up from 50% in 2019.

Good to see @SMFthinktank calling for education to be more of a priority in prisons and, crucially, for more funding for prison education.
