Edward Morello

Liberal Democrat — West Dorset

Speaking in the House of Commons on 11 December 2024

Debate

Finance Bill

Contribution

Those at an independent primary school in my constituency told me that approximately 20% of their students would be in receipt of an education, health and care plan if they were in the state system, but have no additional requirements in their educational establishment, and a number of West Dorset pupils receive six-figure support. Does the right hon. Gentleman agree that more students going into the state system will increase costs for local councils, and that independent schools save the taxpayer money?
