Michael Gove, the Conservative Party's speaker for Children, Schools and Families, spoke on the Andrew Marr Show (BBC 1, 1st June 2008) about their school policies.
Key policies the Conservative Party propose:
- More private and voluntary sector management of schools, but without the drive to make profits.
- More freedom around the national curriculum.
- More parental choice over where their children go to.
- No selection over pupil admission (at least not more than 10% of the total pupil intake, similar to the freedoms that academies currently have).
- More teaching by ability within schools.
- The comprehensive ideal of mixed social intake would stay.
