Oral Answers to Questions

Debate between Sam Gyimah and Heidi Allen

Monday 20th July 2015 Commons Chamber

[Heidi Allen (South Cambridgeshire) (Con)]

T3. We have spoken an awful lot today about fairer funding, and I welcome the extra £390 million that came my way, to Cambridgeshire, last year, and the fact that it will be consolidated for next year. We have talked about consultation to understand the best process for moving forward. Will the Minister or one of his representatives join me on 21 August, when I will host a meeting with key stakeholders, headteachers and Ofsted representatives in South Cambridgeshire to discuss why our schools still need more?

[The Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State for Education (Mr Sam Gyimah)]

I note my hon. Friend’s invitation on 21 August, which I sadly cannot accept because I will be on my summer holiday. However, I welcome the invitation and will be delighted to meet those representatives on another occasion.
