Labour (Co-op) — Manchester Central

Speaking in the House of Commons on 6 February 2025

Debate

Business of the House

Contribution

I thank my hon. Friend for mentioning the issues raised with her on her recent school visit. PE not only plays a vital role in ensuring our young people have access to a broad curriculum that can help them better succeed in education, but is critical to mental and physical health and to our preventive work, and the Government are committed to that. I am sure that the subject would make a good debate were she to apply for one.
