Overview

  • On June 4 at 10 Downing Street Hamilton held a roundtable with Prime Minister Keir Starmer and Education Secretary Bridget Phillipson to discuss his Mission44 initiative.
  • The government committed to establishing a national best practice framework, amplifying young people’s voices and supporting teacher diversity in schools.
  • This response addresses findings that 17% of young people feel unsafe or unwelcome in school and highlights an achievement gap not seen since 2011.
  • Mission44, launched by Hamilton in 2021, focuses on expanding access to STEM education and mentorship for underrepresented youth in the UK and Miami.
  • Hamilton’s advocacy draws on his own experiences of bullying and mental health challenges, underscoring his belief that every student must feel heard.
