Proceeding contribution from Stephen Ladyman (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 must point out the logical flaw in the hon. Gentleman's argument. Grammar schools' selection by ability is concentrated in a couple of areas where the level of selection is very high, but the hon. Gentleman is comparing that figure with selection by aptitude, which is averaged over the whole country. The two figures cannot be compared.
