Proceeding contribution from Andrew Gwynne (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 14 October 2008. It occurred during Ministerial statement on National Curriculum Tests.

Friend guarantee that there will still be an element of challenge in relation to educational attainment at key stage 3, as that is crucial to ensuring that the progress made at GCSE continues?
