In this episode of Policy 360 Unplugged, I’m joined by Emma Shaw, the CEO of Phoenix Education Center in East Belfast. Emma shares her powerful journey from leaving school at 16 to running a grassroots organization that challenges educational disadvantage in working-class, loyalist communities. We delve into her personal story, her experiences as a mature student, and her passion for amplifying the voices of young people often overlooked in policy conversations. Tune in to hear how Emma is pushing for systemic change in education and why she believes every young person deserves a fair shot at success.
