Education Bill: School-related Lords’ Amendments

The House of Commons will consider Lords’ Amendments to the Education Bill on 14 November 2011. A full list of the Lords’ Amendments to the Bill (Bill 248) has been published together with Explanatory Notes (248 – EN). (Hardcopies are available from the Vote Office). The Lords’ Amendments and the Explanatory Notes relate to HL Bill 67 and need to be read in conjunction with it. The Library Bill gateway web pages provide references to the debates on the Bill.

This Library Standard Note highlights some of the main Lords’ Amendments on school-related matters. It does not cover every single amendment nor does it cover Lords’ amendments on other areas covered by the Bill such as apprenticeships, further education and students (the details of library clerks who cover those subjects are given at the end of this note).
