Education (Assemblies) Bill [HL]

[As Introduced]
A
BILL
to

The Education (Assemblies) Bill [HL] addresses requirements for school assemblies in England. Currently, schools must hold a daily assembly with a broadly Christian character unless parents request otherwise. This bill would modify those requirements, likely giving schools greater flexibility in how they structure assemblies and reducing the mandatory Christian emphasis. The changes aim to reflect modern, diverse school populations while maintaining some form of collective gathering for students.

Presented by Baroness Burt of Solihull.
