If the Government will publish a strategy on improving social mobility for white working class boys.
White disadvantaged boys are consistently among the lowest performers on average over every key stage.

This includes rebuilding early family support, reforming how disadvantage funding is targeted, and launching two place-based missions.

I absolutely do, and I thank the hon. Member for that important intervention.
Role models begin in schools, which is why it is important that we address the under-representation of men across the education workforce. Although this is broadly in line with international trends, we want to see more male teachers...

To ask the Secretary of State for Education, what assessment she has made of trends in the level of difference in exclusion rates between boys and girls.
To ask the Secretary of State for Education, what assessment she has made of trends in the level of difference in exclusion rates between boys and girls.
Statistics on the suspensions and permanent exclusions rates for boys and girls up to the 2023/24 academic year can be found in the following publication: https://explore-education-statistics.service.gov.uk/find-statistics/suspensions-and-permanent-exclusions-in-england/2023-24. This has been available since 10 July 2025.
This government is clear schools can use sanctions as a measure to improve behaviour, and in the most serious cases, exclusion may be necessary to ensure every child can achieve and thrive.
We trust head teachers to use their professional judgement, based on the individual circumstances of each case, when considering excluding a pupil. Any decision to exclude must be lawful, reasonable, and fair. The statutory ‘Suspension and permanent exclusion’ guidance is clear that, in all cases, school leaders should consider early intervention strategies to address the underlying causes or contributing factors of a pupil’s disruptive behaviour before issuing an exclusion.
As a part of our Plan for Change, we are committed to turning the tide on poor behaviour and rising exclusions.

To ask the Secretary of State for Education, if she will make an assessment of the potential impact of applying VAT to independent school fees on boys who are neurodiverse.
HM Treasury published a Tax Information and Impact Note (TIIN) on applying VAT to independent school fees. This is a comprehensive assessment of the VAT policy, including impacts on individuals and families, and equalities impacts. The TIIN is available here: https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/vat-on-private-school-fees/applying-vat-to-private-school-fees#who-is-likely-to-be-affected.
