Fri, 13 Oct 2017

The Island's education bosses are seeking feedback from the public on proposed changes to education laws.

The Department of Education and Children is preparing to draft a new Education Bill, giving the legislation its first major overhaul in 16 years.

The Department is keen to hear the public's opinions on religious education, monitoring home education, catchment areas and the quality of pre-schools, as well as a number of other areas.

Those wishing to submit responses to the public consultation can find the full details on the consultation section of the Government's website, and have until November 22nd to get their responses in.
