In addition to this, the department is exploring further options to maximise take up of MQSIs, with a view to improve the supply of teachers for children with sensory impairments.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency East Surrey answering member printed Claire Coutinho question first answered 13/03/2023 17:17:10 answering member 4806 label Biography information for Claire Coutinho
