Proceeding contribution from George Hollingbery (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 21 July 2010. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee of the Whole House (HC) on Academies Bill [Lords].


Academies Bill [Lords]

May I pursue my point a little further? I am a new Member, so forgive me if I am incorrect. Amendment 26 would require"““a statutory entitlement for all pupils””" to PSHE, but it does not mention compulsion or say that PSHE should be mandatory. Could pupils who wish to opt out of PSHE do so? The word used in the amendment is ““entitlement,”” not ““compulsion.””
