Conservative — Aldridge-Brownhills

Speaking in the House of Commons on 18 March 2025

Debate

Children’s Wellbeing and Schools Bill

Contribution

On the Minister’s point about the last 10, 12 or even 14 years, would she join me in acknowledging that the schools in Walsall borough—a very diverse borough, with areas of real deprivation—outperformed national figures for the first time at the end of last year, with 91% of Walsall schools being graded good or better? That figure has steadily increased under not just a Conservative Government, but a fantastic Conservative-led council.
