Proceeding contribution from Ed Balls (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 30 June 2009. It occurred during Ministerial statement on 21st Century Schools.

21st Century Schools

I welcome my hon. Friend's support. The fact is that that local authority performs well in many ways, but we need to address some worrying issues to do with the national challenge and underperforming schools. I have asked Sir Graham Badman to produce a report and to report back to me in September. We will carefully consider all the points made, and I shall ensure that the points that my hon. Friend raises are included. If we need to act to ensure that not only some schools but all schools achieve, we will ensure that the action is taken.
