Speaking in the House of Lords on 16 September 2025
Debate
Children’s Wellbeing and Schools BillContribution
My Amendments 453A and 457A seek to ensure, first, that the adjudicator takes into account the performance and popularity of the school, and, secondly, that the adjudicator can receive objections only in relation to cuts in PAN. Amendment 457B would allow high-performing schools to increase their PAN. To be clear, we are not wedded to the exact educational metrics in that amendment, but we think that there is an important point of principle at stake here.
