My Lords, I think we all know what I do for a living. I welcome our rejoining of Erasmus+ but, to follow on from the question asked by the noble Lord, Lord Mohammed of Tinsley, it is vital that state schools and people who do not have the opportunity to go on holiday abroad can join the Erasmus scheme and benefit from all this money. Can the Minister be slightly more specific about how schools are going to learn about this? I am not sure that so many do.
