Question to the Department for Education:
To ask the Secretary of State for Education, when her Department plans to publish its response to the consultation on implementing the English Baccalaureate which closed on 29 January 2016.
The English Baccalaureate provides the right foundation for most pupils, and we want to see a significant increase in the proportion of pupils in mainstream secondary schools entering the English Baccalaureate subjects at GCSE.
We are carefully considering the consultation responses and will publish the Government response in due course.
