Text
Teachers have nothing to fear, but it is also about the timing of the Bill. Inspections have been happening, and changes have been made, but the legislation would sanction teachers. You talked about our most vulnerable children: I am sorry, but it is the system that makes our children vulnerable. Many of our children are not being placed in the right setting. Our teachers' workload is unbelievable. You are not listening. You are not grasping that, and that is the big problem in the Chamber today. It is clear what the DUP really wants to do through the legislation.
