Proceeding contribution from Cheryl Gillan (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 8 November 2016. It occurred during Backbench debate on Grammar and Faith Schools.
Grammar and Faith Schools
The hon. Lady seems to be opposed to the Government consulting on these matters and opposed to choice, which Conservative Members support. What evidence does she have that children in Buckinghamshire are disadvantaged? We have 13 grammar schools, seven of them the lowest-funded schools in the country, and 90% of our schools are good or outstanding. There is no evidence showing anything other than the grammar school system in Buckinghamshire providing a good education right across the board to all children.
