Proceeding contribution from Ian Mearns (Labour) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 11 May 2011. It occurred during Debate on bill on Education Bill.


Education Bill

My right hon. Friend puts his finger on the nub of the issue—the Minister promised in Committee on 29 March that the admissions code was imminent. We must reiterate the concerns of the schools adjudicator, because he saw the idea of simplifying the admissions code as a way of giving wriggle room to schools to use covert selection. That is a real concern for my constituents and parents in my area.
