FOR-PROFIT STATE SCHOOLS

Tabled by Mr Ken Purchase (Labour) 41 signatures

The motion

That this House is alarmed by proposals of edubusinesses to run state schools for profit along the lines of the Swedish system supported by the Conservative Party; and while recognising the important role business can play in supporting schools, deplores the notion that the educational needs of present and future generations should be exploited for profit by companies, organisations or individuals.
