Two former academies ministers have teamed up with a former education secretary in an attempt to tear up sweeping proposed government powers over schools.
Lord Nash, who served in the role between 2013 and 2017, and Lord Agnew, who was at the Department for Education from 2017 to 2020, have tabled a series of amendments to the schools bill.
Alongside Lord Baker, who was education secretary from 1986 to 1989, they want to see 16 clauses stripped from the bill.
