Motion text
That this House notes that a report from the think-tank Civitas states that some academy schools boost exam results by concentrating on vocational courses at the expense of academic subjects, specifically that geography, history, single sciences and modern languages are disappearing at GCSE level in some in favour of qualifications such as computer studies, general science or sport; believes that the Civitas report puts into perspective the claims that GCSE results at academies are improving at twice the national average rate; and calls on the Secretary of State for Children, Schools and Families to undertake a thorough investigation of the curriculum provided at academy schools to ensure that it fully complies with the national curriculum.
