Conservative — East Hampshire

Speaking in the House of Commons on 21 July 2025

Debate

Teacher Recruitment

Contribution

If the Labour manifesto had meant that only secondary teachers counted, but they could be in any subject, presumably that is what it would have said. What it actually said was 6,500 new specialist teachers in key subjects, so will the Secretary of State enlighten us: what are those subjects?
