Proceeding contribution from Lord Brady of Altrincham (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 11 December 2007. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Children's Plan.


Children's Plan

The Secretary of State knows that one of the most serious shortcomings in our schools at the moment lies in the unacceptably high number of children who move backwards between the ages of 11 and 14. Is it not the case that under his new testing proposals it will be impossible to know whether that situation is improving or getting worse in particular schools?
