With an election on the horizon, potential political attack lines are beginning to emerge. This weekend, education secretary Gillian Keegan took aim at Labour’s track record and its plans should it form the next government.
As well as criticising the Welsh Labour government and the party’s private school tax plans, Keegan bigged up her party’s own record on teacher numbers and funding.
The claims are likely to form an important part of election campaigning on education, but do they stand up to scrutiny? (hint: they do not)
Schools Week takes a closer look.
