Schools: Codes of Practice

Asked by Dan AldridgeLabourDepartment for EducationTabled Answered 11 June 2025UIN 57014

The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Education, whether it is her Department's policy to increase the capital budget to schools to support them in implementing the proposed EHRC changes to the Code of Practice for services, public functions and associations.

Answered by Stephen Morgan

The Equality and Human Rights Commission (EHRC) is updating its Code of Practice for Services, Public Functions and Associations and is seeking views from affected stakeholders through their consultation which closes on 30 June. We would encourage people to ensure their views are heard by submitting a response to the consultation. The department will then consider the EHRC’s updated draft once they have submitted it.
