"The Children, Schools and Families Bill is set to complete its remaining stages
in the Lords.
The government has dropped several of the key measures from the bill owing to
opposition demands, including: guarantees of one to one tuition for children who
fall behind, mandatory sex education for those over 15 and a new registration
system for home-educated children.
Historically the government is forced to make concessions to opposition parties
during the so-called "wash-up" period to ensure that its legislation is passed
before Parliament breaks up for the general election.
The provisions that remain in the bill are concerned with special education
needs pupils, excluded pupils and allow greater access to the media in Family
Court proceedings."
