Proceeding contribution from Baroness Buscombe (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 24 October 2006. It occurred during Debate on bill on Education and Inspections Bill.
Education and Inspections Bill
My Lords, that is a great pity. We are denying more than half of children who are learning science in school the opportunity to study the separate sciences. It is why parents from whatever background are doing everything possible to move their children out of the state sector and into the independent sector, where they are being given greater life chances. That is a tragic situation. I shall test the opinion of the House, because I believe that what I am asking for is reasonable. On Question, Whether the said amendment(No. 95) shall be agreed to? Their Lordships divided: Contents, 121; Not-Contents, 208. [Amendments Nos. 96 and 97 not moved.]
