Education and Adoption Bill

Proceeding contribution from Kevin Brennan (Labour) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 16 September 2015. It occurred during Debate on bills on Education and Adoption Bill.

My hon. Friend is absolutely right. There seems in the Department to be an in-built bias against facing up to failure in academy schools while exaggerating problems when the school is a maintained school. All we are calling for is a level playing field. We are just saying that every child should have the right to be taught in a good school, whatever that school is, and the Government should not be a propaganda department for a particular type of school structure.

I can see the hon. Member for Portsmouth South (Mrs Drummond) leaning forward. Does she wish to intervene?
