Speaking in the House of Lords on 19 June 2025

Debate

Children’s Wellbeing and Schools Bill

Contribution

We have not seen anything in the last year, and we have not seen much from the previous 20 years. It is a problem that has got worse and worse. I hope that this Government will address that and recognise how important it is, not least because so many of the brightest and best of our young people in schools had the opportunities to get full bursaries to go to the independent sector until recently and benefit from that, and that door is being shut.
