ST BARNABAS PRIMARY SCHOOL, MANCHESTER AND EDUCATION FOR ALL

That this House congratulates the children of St Barnabas Primary School in Manchester, who are campaigning for the 67 million children worldwide who do not go to school; notes that these British children recognise that it is not fair that some children do learn to read and write whilst others are denied that possibility; agrees with them that universal education should be a basic human right and not restricted by money or gender; and believes that the ambition of the children of St Barnabas Primary School should be an ambition for the whole world, since universal access to literacy can be achieved if the political will exists.
