Since returning from the Easter break, I am grateful for the opportunity to visit schools across the constituency. My final school visit of the month, but by no means least, was to the brilliant Pinner High School on Beaulieu Drive. This was my third visit to the school, and it is always such a pleasure to meet with the pupils there who are so engaged in the world of politics.
Firstly, I met with a group of Sixth Form Politics students, whose questions led to a varied and interesting discussion about the education sector, legislation going through Parliament, such as the Illegal Migration Bill and Public Order Bill, and diversity within the Conservative Party.
Following this discussion, I also spoke with the Headteacher, Raj Patel, who echoed many of the concerns raised by other schools on issues such as teachers pay and the stretching of school budgets. It was another informative conversation with plenty to relay to Ministerial colleagues.
