Proceeding contribution from Lord Gove (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 8 February 2011. It occurred during Debate on bill on Education Bill.


Education Bill

As so often, the hon. Lady is absolutely right. One problem in the education system is that we need to make it easier for good heads to tackle underperformance by encouraging staff to do the professional development that they need to improve. If they do not improve, they should move on. No one benefits when poor teachers are in the classroom. It not only places an additional burden on hard-working and talented staff, but denies children the chance that they need.
