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

Education Bill

Has the fact that the Secretary of State stood at the Opposition Dispatch Box and argued that we need unqualified teachers in our classrooms passed from his memory? That did not seem to be a message of endorsement for our teachers. Not only in my constituency, which is served by two boroughs, but throughout the country, Sure Start and children's centres will close, and there is no protection for them. They are important because they prepare children for primary school, but the situation is further exacerbated by the fact that nothing in the Bill will create more of the desperately needed primary school places in both boroughs in my constituency.
