Education Of Children Seeking Asylum (EDM1187)

Education Of Children Seeking Asylum

EDM number 1187 in 2001-02, proposed by Karen Buck on 23/04/2002.

That this House expresses its concern at sections 30 and 31 of the Nationality, Immigration and Asylum Bill, which removes refugee children in accommodation centres from the application of key sections of education law; notes that the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child lays down the child's right to education on the basis of equal opportunity; believes that the development of segregated education provision is both regressive and discriminatory, and not in the best interests of the child; believes that the status of refugee children as children should take precedence over their status as asylum seekers; and calls on the Government to meet its obligations under the UNCRC, by ensuring that all children in the United Kingdom have the same access to mainstream school places.

This motion has been signed by a total of 148 MPs, 5 of these signatures have been withdrawn.
