Jack Straw welcomes the RSA Prison Learning Network
The Secretary of State for Justice, Jack Straw launched the Prison Learning Network, at the RSA. He delivered an engaging lecture about the criminal justice system as well as responding to some challenging questions. Speaking to a 200 strong audience, Mr Straw called for greater community engagement as a way to promote and strengthen confidence in the criminal justice system.
In his lecture, Mr Straw welcomed the RSA’s latest initiative, the Prison Learning Network (PLN). It will bring together a unique group: prison governors, probation staff, teachers, and those working on the frontline to give offenders desperately needed skills.
Over the coming year, the PLN will be continuing the debate through a series of working groups, lectures and policy papers.
The event was covered by the Guardian, the Daily Mail, the Telegraph. For more information on the PLN, go to www.theRSA.org/projects
