Proceeding contribution from Lord Willetts (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 15 March 2006. It occurred during Debate on bill on Education and Inspections Bill.


Education and Inspections Bill

It is indeed one of the significant problems, to which my hon. Friend rightly draws attention, that there are too many schools in special measures, failing and giving cause for concern. They drift along in those circumstances for far too long. One of the measures that I welcome is the measure to try to speed up that process so that failing schools do not drift along in that limbo state as long as they do at the moment. I am grateful for the opportunity to endorse one of the Secretary of State’s proposals.
