Andrew Stephenson – 2016 Parliamentary Question to the Department for Education

The below Parliamentary question was asked by Andrew Stephenson on 2016-09-02.

To ask the Secretary of State for Education, what support to find school places is available for British families with school-age children returning to the UK after a long period of time.

Edward Timpson

Any British national has the right to apply for a school place irrespective of where they live and any state-funded school must admit their child if they have space. Local authorities must provide information about all schools and available places in their area.
