Q 24 That is the answer, then: extremely hard. We are not measuring it is the real answer.
Richard Watts: No, we are not—not adequately.
Peter Kyle (Hove) (Lab)
Q 25 Thank you all for coming today. I will jump straight in because we are pressed for time. Sir Daniel, in your answer you talked about failing schools, yet we are talking about coasting schools. What tools are there for tackling coasting, not failing?
Sir Daniel Moynihan: Clearly, with a coasting school, the legislation is not looking at an immediate conversion, but seeing whether the school can put an action plan together to improve itself within a reasonable amount of time.
