Jane Hunt MP asked:
Does my hon. Friend agree that there is an excellent opportunity here for voluntary sectors to get involved over the summer and beyond? Organisations such as Passion in Shepshed look after children on a day-to-day basis, offering them food, but also places to do homework and extra work, and support and assistance in every way. Does she agree that there is an opportunity there?
Laura Farris MP responded:
There is an opportunity, and in fact an imperative, to involve wider civil society in getting kids back into school.
