Question to the Department for Education:
To ask the Secretary of State for Education, what discussions he has had with the Chancellor of the Exchequer on the effect of Government investment in education on pupil outcomes since 2010.
My Rt hon. Friend, the Secretary of State for Education routinely discusses matters of shared interest with Cabinet colleagues, including my Rt hon. Friend, the Chancellor of the Exchequer. Pupil outcomes are, of course, at the heart of the Department’s decision-making.
