Speaking in the House of Lords on 10 September 2025

Debate

Children’s Wellbeing and Schools Bill

Contribution

Clause 50 is about empowering the Secretary of State to act in the best interests of children. Far from leading to the weakening of school improvement, it will accelerate it. For that reason, and because of the assurances I have provided, I hope that noble Lords will feel able to withdraw or not move their amendments.
