Proceeding contribution from Rob Marris (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 13 May 2008. It occurred during Debate on bill on Education and Skills Bill.


Education and Skills Bill

I confess that I am not an education expert, and I have never understood the difference between selection by aptitude and selection by ability. New clause 18 refers to selection by aptitude. Does the hon. Gentleman encompass in the word ““aptitude”” the concept of ability, or does he distinguish between aptitude and ability? If so, will he explain how he does that?
