Education Bill

Proceeding contribution from Helen Jones (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 8 February 2011. It occurred during Debate on bills on Education Bill.
I would be grateful if the Secretary of State could tell the House why he believes that having unqualified teachers can raise educational standards. Why does he think that teaching is different from any other profession in that people who are totally untrained and unqualified should be allowed into it? He would not do it for a doctor or an engineer—why is teaching different?
