The minister’s response is not included in the given transcript. I congratulate my hon. Friend on securing this debate. The Government recognise the unacceptable treatment of young people from the Caribbean who were placed in ESN schools during the 1960s and 1970s. We are determined to root out structural inequality and direct discrimination, ensuring a level playing field for all children. Our opportunity mission aims to build opportunity for every child by setting up every child for the best start in life, helping them achieve and thrive at school, building skills, achieving growth, and securing family security. We will tackle disparities in educational outcomes across ethnic groups, focusing on economic disadvantage as a significant factor affecting pupil attainment. The Department acknowledges that some children have a greater likelihood of exclusion than others due to local context and we are committed to improving inclusivity and expertise in mainstream schools through better mental health support, earlier intervention for at-risk pupils, enhancing the inspection regime by replacing the single headline grade with a new report card system and introducing an annual review of safeguarding, attendance, and pupil movement. However, the Government do not currently plan to establish a public inquiry on the policy framework surrounding the placement of children in schools as ESN in the 1960s and 1970s. -
