David Cameron to swap politics for the early years

The Prime Minister has revealed plans to start training as an Early Years Teacher after stepping down as leader of the Conservatives in 2020.

Speaking to the BBC last month, David Cameron said he will not serve a third term as Prime Minister if the Conservative party remains in Government after the general election.

He has now revealed exclusively to Nursery World the real reason behind the move – that he wishes to fulfil his lifelong dream of opening a nursery.

Mr Cameron said, ‘It is clear that the seeds of competence, decency, and the ability to formulate a long-term economic plan that turns the country round are sown in the early years. Therefore, it is only right to start at the beginning. We’ve helped parents across Britain get back on their feet again, now we are going to teach their children how to walk.’
