Debate between Charlie Dewhirst and Janet Daby

Monday 4th November 2024 Commons Chamber

[The Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State for Education (Janet Daby)]

Foster carers provide some of the best care for children who are looked after. Some £4 million of new funding has been allocated for regional foster recruitment hubs, bringing the total amount of funding to £15 million. I am pleased to say that these hubs will generate hundreds of new foster placements.

[Charlie Dewhirst (Bridlington and The Wolds) (Con)]

T6. The teachers and staff at Hornsea school and language college do a fantastic job for their 1,300 pupils, including 90 with SEND, but they do so in crumbling buildings with leaking roofs. With the news in last week’s Budget that this Government will continue the Conservative’s school rebuilding programme, will the Secretary of State prioritise Hornsea school?
