Special Educational Needs and Disabilities Review

Debate between Holly Mumby-Croft and Baroness Laing of Elderslie

Tuesday 29th March 2022 Commons Chamber

[Madam Deputy Speaker (Dame Eleanor Laing)]

The prize for perseverance and patience goes to Holly Mumby-Croft.

[Holly Mumby-Croft (Scunthorpe) (Con)]

Thank you, Madam Deputy Speaker.

I recently visited St Hugh’s, an outstanding special school in my constituency. I was shown around by Thomas and Spencer, and I was incredibly impressed by both of them—they made a big impression on me. They are brilliant tour guides, and I hope to pay them back by giving them a tour of this place as soon as it can be arranged. Will my right hon. Friend the Secretary of State join me in thanking the staff and teachers at schools such as St Hugh’s for the brilliant work they are already doing, alongside the Government, to support our great young people like Thomas and Spencer?
