Proceeding contribution from Stephen Twigg (Labour) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 11 May 2011. It occurred during Debate on bill on Education Bill.
Education Bill
The Select Committee Chair says that new clause 2 would not extend selection, but it would involve its extension within the state system. Does he not acknowledge that a number of independent schools, including Belvedere school in Liverpool, have entered the state system and been willing and happy as a condition to become local comprehensive schools? Is that not a better approach, if we are to widen opportunities for as many young people as possible?
