Speaking in the House of Lords on 3 February 2026

Debate

Children’s Wellbeing and Schools Bill

Contribution

I hope this commitment to put in place clear requirements for the adjudicator provides the noble Baroness with assurance that school quality will always remain a central consideration, while allowing for flexibility to adapt to changing circumstances—for example, to reflect any future changes to accountability measures: in other words, how we identify and define strong school performance. That is obviously an important element of her amendment, and would be restricted by that amendment.
