I was pleased earlier to have opportunity to raise the matter of the lack of post-16 education within the Bolsover constituency at Prime Minister's Questions in the House of Commons.
Thank you Mr Speaker, following on from the publication of the schools white paper one of my most important campaigns is to secure provision of quality post-16 education with the Bolsover Constituency, where there is currently none. Young people in my constituency have to travel long distances at considerable cost to access their education, will my Right Honourable Friend meet with me to discuss how we can right this wrong for the young people of the Bolsover Constituency and give them the education that they deserve.
Prime Minister
Yes, I thank him very much and he's a great champion for Bolsover and for his constituents. Subsidised travel is provided to Bolsover Students travelling so far to two of the three excellent colleges that are going to be offering T-levels from 2023 but I will make sure that he gets a meeting with my Right Honourable Friend, the Education Secretary to discuss further what we can do.
