Petitions

James Heappey Excerpts

Tuesday 1st December 2015 Commons Chamber

[Andrew Bridgen (North West Leicestershire) (Con)]

I rise to present a petition on behalf of my constituents in North West Leicestershire asking for fairer school funding. Leicestershire has for many years been the second-lowest funded of all areas in the UK, receiving some £500 per pupil less than pupils in Leicester and an amazing £1,000 per year per pupil less than pupils in Birmingham. The petition is signed by 664 of my constituents and is in the same terms as that presented by my hon. Friend the Member for Beverley and Holderness.

The Petition of the residents of North West Leicestershire.

[James Heappey (Wells) (Con)]

I rise to present a petition on behalf of the pupils, parents and teachers of schools from across the Wells constituency in the same terms as my hon. Friend the Member for Beverley and Holderness.

The Petition of the residents of Wells.

[Mr Laurence Robertson (Tewkesbury) (Con)]

I rise to present a petition on behalf of very many of my Tewkesbury constituents to campaign against unfair education funding in the same terms as those expressed by my hon. Friend the Member for Beverley and Holderness.
