Oral question asked in the House of Commons, by Patrick Mercer (Independent (affiliation)). It was answered on Monday, 6 January 2014 on behalf of the Department for Education.
Free Schools
- Question
-
The Secretary of State will be aware of the delight with which the rebuilding of Newark academy has been greeted in Newark, yet the establishment of the free school at the same time seems to be competing for small numbers of students who are needed inside the maintained schools. How does he answer that charge?
- Answer
-
I will look closely at the particular case that the hon. Gentleman raises. I know that he has been an effective champion for good school provision in Newark, and I shall ensure that I look closely at the pupil numbers to which he alludes.
