There are a record amount of ministers with state education in the incoming Labour government.

A study by The Sutton Trust found that, of the 25 cabinet members, only one attended grammar or private school, and that 92% attended comprehensive school.

By comparison, in the cabinets of Rishi Sunak and Liz Truss just 19% of ministers were state educated.

About 6% of children in the UK go to private school, meaning this cabinet closely reflects the educational experiences of the general public.

But that starts to diverge when you look at higher education, with 40% of cabinet ministers having studied at Oxbridge, compared to less than 1% of the UK population.

DD News looks at the educational background of each of Sir Keir Starmer's new top team.

Sir Keir Starmer, prime minister

School type: Grammar

Sir Keir studied law at the University of Leeds before gaining his postgraduate degree at Oxford.

His school was a selective state school when he joined and his place was state-funded throughout his time there, but became a private school two years into his time there.

Angela Rayner, deputy prime minister and levelling up secretary

Ms Rayner did not go to university. She left school at 16 with no qualifications when she was pregnant with her first son.

Rachel Reeves, chancellor

School type: Comprehensive

She read philosophy, politics and economics (PPE) at the University of Oxford before gaining a master's in economics from the London School of Economics (LSE).

Ms Reeves was educated at an all-girls comprehensive school in Beckenham, south London, which she said "really believed" in her and "gave me everything I needed to get on".

She described herself as "swot", revealing she did SATs exams in her free time after her school boycotted them.

She studied law at the University of Oxford.
