Proceeding contribution from Baroness Benjamin (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Lords on Monday, 12 September 2011. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee proceeding on Education Bill.
Education Bill
In the Minister’s efforts to address this issue, could he please include parents? Parents are the key to the problem of these children not attending school. They are essential to making this successful. In my experience as a governor and a chair of governors of an academy where we had Gypsy and Roma children, the parents were the stumbling block. If you can get to them, part of this problem will be solved.
