- Current status: Taken in the Chamber on Wednesday, 28 February 2024
As an amendment to motion S6M-12304 in the name of Jenny Gilruth (Recommendations of the Independent Review of Qualifications and Assessment), leave out from "acknowledges" to end and insert "believes that teachers, parents and pupils need to be central to the actions taken to progress reform, particularly to take account of the context in which it exists, including rising violence in schools, reductions in pupil attendance, reductions in staff, growing class sizes, increases in staff workload and the need for more non-contact time; further believes that these issues make reform even more urgent; urges a joined-up approach to reform, including implementing the Morgan review, to address pressing issues with provision for pupils with additional support needs, and connecting school-based reform to the wider reform on skills so that the opportunities for young people in Scotland are maximised, and believes that the Scottish Government must, in addition to responding to individual reviews, address the outstanding structural problems in Scottish education so that it can create a fairer system, which can deliver opportunities for all of Scotland’s young people."
