Commons ChamberDisadvantaged children cannot get to university if they do not get the grades in the first place, so will the Minister ask the schools Minister to meet us in the Furness area who are looking at a major new initiative to get the private-sector local employees involved in closing the generations-long gap in GCSE numeracy and literacy attainment?
I believe my right hon. Friend the schools Minister is confirming that he would be keen to take such a meeting.
