Speaking in the House of Lords on 16 September 2025

Debate

Children’s Wellbeing and Schools Bill

Contribution

Ever since 2004, Ofsted has been seriously constrained in its capacity to look at what is being taught, and the latest inspection proposals will limit this still further. Unless the Government change their policy, there is no chance of these problems properly surfacing through that route. That is why Amendment 466 is so important. It requires all RSHE resources to be published, citable and open to scrutiny. If they are good enough to be taught to children, they ought to stand up to public debate.
