Poor school achievement from white boys is linked to immigration from Eastern Europe according to Labour’s shadow education secretary.
Tristram Hunt, who is a former television historian, said that more must be done to train British youngsters for skilled jobs.
He claimed that change was essential as more people from the EU continue to arrive to compete for jobs.
Mr Hunt also branded Conservative education secretary Michael Gove a ‘zealot’ with a ‘ highly aggressive investment-banker model of school.’
The comments were made in an interview with The Fabian Society which will be published next week.
They come days before migrants from Romania and Bulgaria will be granted the unrestricted right to live and work in the UK.
