Schools White Paper

I have great admiration for the right hon. Lady’s intellect, but I am puzzled by her somewhat schizophrenic approach to admissions policy. Could she make it somewhat clearer for simple souls like myself? Is she also aware that a large majority of the parents polled in Bournemouth were in favour of the retention of Bournemouth’s excellent grammar schools, which were, at one time, grant maintained? Can she explain why she is so opposed to their continuation in that former role?
