Conservative MP Robert Halfon: “The government can’t say there’s no money for education” The chair of the Education Select Committee discusses how to solve the schools crisis. I decided I would become an MP aged 12, so I was a very strange child,” laughs Robert Halfon. “An MP came to my school and said the House of Commons had a thousand rooms, and I didn’t believe it and said I wanted to go. I decided on that day that the place was so amazing I was going to become an MP.” Halfon, 52, has been the Conservative MP for Harlow, Essex, since 2010 – a former bellwether seat that has now become a Tory stronghold. Education is his mission: he briefly served as skills minister in Theresa May’s government, and has chaired the House of Commons Education Select Committee since July 2017.

Religion can equip pupils from minority ethnic backgrounds for Oxbridge traditions such as formal dinners because they are “used to rituals”, the chairman of the Commission on Race and Ethnic Disparities has said.
Dr Tony Sewell said religion could also have a “positive effect” on young people because it teaches “discipline”.
Appearing before the House of Commons Education Select Committee on Wednesday, Dr Sewell was asked what effect a pupil’s religious background could have on their education.
