Admissions Criteria In Secondary Schools

EDM number 409 in 2003-04, proposed by David Chaytor on 13/01/2004.

That this House notes the clear statement in the current School Admissions Code of Practice that 'Academic selection should never be used to decide entry into primary education'; celebrates the internationally recognised achievements of Britain's comprehensive primary schools; recognises that the National Curriculum applies equally to all pupils within primary and secondary schools; and calls on the Government, therefore, to ensure that the next edition of the Schools Admissions Code of Practice includes an equally clear statement that 'Academic selection should never be used to decide entry into secondary education'.

This motion has been signed by a total of 110 MPs, 2 of these signatures have been withdrawn.
