Proceeding contribution from Baroness Morris of Bolton (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Monday, 21 July 2008. It occurred during Committee of the Whole House (HL) and Debate on bill on Education and Skills Bill.

Education and Skills Bill

I thank the Minister. I now realise that I spoke so succinctly that I completely omitted to mention leadership and management. However, I need not have worried as he is brilliant at answering my concerns and non-questions. I am very grateful to him for recognising the standard of leadership and management in the independent sector. I am delighted that the registration of independent schools will stay with the Secretary of State. I am enormously grateful to the Minister for his hard work in this area. He and the Secretary of State will have won the gratitude of the entire independent sector for their willingness to listen. I fully accept, and am greatly reassured by, his comments on Section 347 schools. I thank him again for persisting with a matter which, if not addressed, would have altered the dynamics of a relationship that works well. That can only be good for all the children in this country.
