Labour responds to comments made by the Education Secretary

Stephen Morgan MP, Labour’s Shadow Schools Minister, responding to comments made by the Education Secretary, said:

“This is a staggering admission that Rishi Sunak and the Conservatives have done nothing to address a problem that they have known about for years. 

“The Education Secretary has displayed staggering arrogance for saying she deserves a pat on the back for the chaos that is gripping our schools on their watch. 

“Families, school leaders and school staff deserve an immediate apology for these appalling comments.”
