Mr. Dorrell: The Minister has responded to noneof the concerns that I expressed. It remains the Government's position that it is more important to be in a class of 29, in a second-choice school, with a newly qualified teacher. In the Government's view, that is a better set of circumstances than to be in a class of 31, with an inspirational teacher, in one's school of first choice, in gleaming new buildings. That is not the experience of the overwhelming majority of Britain's parents. That is why we shall press the new clause to a vote.
Question put, That the clause be read a Second time:--
The House divided: Ayes 130, Noes 333.
Tellers for the Ayes:
Tellers for the Noes:
Question accordingly negatived.
Mrs. Browning:
I beg to move, That the clause be read a Second time.
AYES
