HALF OF SCHOOLS NOT GOOD ENOUGH SAYS DAVID LAWS
“We need more well-led and properly funded schools if we are to address the disadvantages faced by so many young people in Britain,” said the Liberal Democrat Shadow Schools Secretary, David Laws.
Commenting on today’s Ofsted figures, which show that half the schools they inspected last term were considered to be no better than ‘satisfactory’, David Laws said: “Labour has had 13 years to get a grip on education, but thousands of children still attend schools which are not considered to be providing good standards.
“In spite of the controversy about whether these figures can be compared with earlier years, the bottom line is that half of schools inspected were not good enough.
“We need more well-led and properly funded schools if we are to address the disadvantages faced by so many young people in Britain.”
