Speaking in the House of Lords on 16 September 2025
Debate
Children’s Wellbeing and Schools BillContribution
The overall conclusion on the three amendments in this group is that they highlight significant issues. We want to make sure that the support we bring in reaches young people. One of the main priorities is getting those young people into educational settings and making sure they have the ability to stay there and to thrive. We will achieve that by improving inclusivity and expertise in mainstream schools, ensuring that special schools cater to those with the most complex needs, and restoring trust for parents and carers that their children will get the support that they need. We are on a very important journey. The details that so many noble Lords have asked for on our intended approach will be clearly set out in the forthcoming schools White Paper. With those comments, I hope that noble Lords will feel able not to press their amendments.
