WATCH: Education chief on campaign to equip children with laptops

Greater Birmingham Chambers of Commerce president Steve Allen spoke to Birmingham Education Partnership chief executive Tim Boyes to discuss a new campaign to get laptops to Birmingham children who urgently need them for home schooling.

The Digital Education Partnership is aiming to equip thousands of children across the city with connectivity or devices.

The initiative was launched after it emerged as many as 20,000 young people in schools across Birmingham are still suffering from 'digital poverty ', which is excluding them from education during lockdown.

The Chamber is backing the project.
