Education and Adoption Bill

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

The whole House is. I am just representing the views of my constituents, which is why I am sent here.

The Minister puts great faith in the role of regional schools commissioners. A number of my local schools in Stoke-on-Trent are in special measures and require improvement. They are not at the coasting stage; things are much more serious than that. The regional schools commissioner has failed to help to improve those schools, so why does the Minister think the RSCs will be able to sort out coasting schools, given that at the moment they cannot even sort out schools that require improvement or are in special measures?
