Proceeding contribution from Sharon Hodgson (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 11 December 2007. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Children's Plan.


Children's Plan

I thank my right hon. Friend for his statement on the children's plan. He will not be surprised that I wholeheartedly welcome his announcement of the £18 million over three years for teacher training specifically for special educational needs. My right hon. Friend will be aware that my private Member's Bill is about special educational needs; I hope that it will get a fair wind through the House. Will he consider allocating part of the £44 million, which he announced for the next three years to enable teachers to study for master-level qualifications, to teachers wishing to gain specialist qualifications in special educational needs such as dyslexia?
