Oral Answers to Questions

Debate between Stuart Anderson and Gillian Keegan

Monday 22nd June 2020 Commons Chamber

[Gillian Keegan]

It is clear that the initial focus has been on the school catch-up. There has been a great response from the further education sector, which was quick to move online and to provide a wide range of engaging and innovative classes. We recognise the need for catch-up, particularly for those starting college from school, and we are working to see what more support we can give to make up for the disruption due to covid-19.
