Child Quote by Gavin Williamson
“We are working hard to ensure every child fulfils their potential and goes on to seize all the opportunities life can offer them. If they haven't learnt the importance of basic good manners, of courtesy and of respect for others, they will certainly struggle when it comes to making their way in adult society.”
