Mr David Lammy (Tottenham) (Lab)
The Secretary of State and the whole House will recognise the deprivation in Newham, Tower Hamlets, Haringey and Hackney. Why, then, has the Secretary of State decided to give more money in his pupil premium to Oxfordshire, Surrey and Devon?
Michael Gove
We have not. The pupil premium goes to every child eligible for free school meals and is allocated precisely according to need.
