Daily Mirror Campaign On Education

EDM number 625 in 1989-90, proposed by Hilary Armstrong on 28/02/1990.

That this House congratulates the Daily Mirror on its campaign for the future of children which highlights the raw deal that many children receive due to lack of investment in schools and teachers, and which brings to the attention of the British public the effect that crumbling, inadequate schools and teacher shortages are having on the nation's children; recognises that the future success of Britain depends on a well-educated and highly trained workforce; and calls upon the Government to work with teachers and parents by investing in education and giving proper educational opportunity to all children.

This motion has been signed by a total of 47 MPs.
