Education and Adoption Bill

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

In Kingston and Surbiton, we have the two Tiffin schools. One is just outside my constituency, and one is in it. They are excellent examples of grammar schools, and I would certainly support maintaining them. Does my hon. Friend agree that schools can create a variety of educational models, albeit non-selective ones, within the free schools system? Those models follow the traditional academic grammar school route without the selective element, which is a successful way of preserving the grammar school ethos without the problems of selectivity.
