Part of 1. 1. Questions to the Cabinet Secretary for Education – in the Senedd at 1:51 pm on 8 February 2017.
Thank you for that. As far as the red, amber, and green classifications are concerned, can the Cabinet Secretary tell us how many children live in catchment areas where both primary and secondary schools are deemed as either amber or red? I’m sure the Cabinet Secretary agrees with me that subjecting a child to a school that requires improvement is unacceptable and it would be a national disgrace if we were to sentence a child to failing schools throughout their educational life, so it’s vital we know the scale of any situation where both levels of schools need improvement.
