Contribution

I am sure you will agree, Mr Speaker, that one of the best parts of being a Member of Parliament is visiting our fantastic local schools. When I have done that in recent months, I have been shocked by what I have seen. I have seen pupils at Deanesfield primary school, my old school, learning in mouldy and crumbling portacabins. I have seen Bishopshalt school, a fantastic secondary school, with broken plumbing and toilets. Just last week, I saw pupils at Glebe primary school, which flooded in September, still learning in facilities that have not been put right by the council. Can we make time in this place for a debate about much-needed capital investment in school buildings and how we build on the fantastic legacy of the last Labour Government’s Building Schools for the Future programme?
