Gary sits down with Katharine Birbalsingh, a British educator and headmistress of Michaela Community School, a school in inner-city London run on traditional educational principles. Last year Michaela's students achieved some of the best GCSE scores in the country, receiving the highest possible grade at a rate four times higher than the national average. They talk about the impact traditional educational methods can have on the opportunities available to children, particularly those from poor and ethnic minority backgrounds.
