New Clause 15 - Reducing administrative burdens on schools, etc.
Education Bill [Lords]
5:00 pm
Mrs Angela Watkinson (Shadow Minister, Education; Upminster, Conservative)
No, I assure the hon. Gentleman that that is not what I had in mind. I am sure that the Department knows very well how many directives it has sent out to land on head teachers desks every day of the school year. We must monitor that and the requirement to produce plans and reports. Such things emanate from the Department, and that is where they must be monitored.
