Lord Beecham – 2016 Parliamentary Question to the Department for Education

The below Parliamentary question was asked by Lord Beecham on 2016-07-19.

To ask Her Majesty’s Government whether they still intend to publish the consultation on the future of Sure Start, which they promised to initiate in July 2015, and if so when.

Lord Nash

This Government is committed to improving social mobility and extending opportunity so that everyone has the chance to realise their full potential.

Our approach to improving life chances will focus on tackling the root causes of poverty such as worklessness, educational attainment and family stability and we will consider future policy on children’s centres as part of this. We will make it clear how stakeholders and members of the public can contribute in due course.‎‎
