JEREMY Corbyn’s campaign trail hit Rugby today (Thursday December 5) when he visited Bilton School, took part in discussions with pupils – and even served lunch at the school canteen.
The visit coincided with Labour’s promise to cap class sizes at 30 pupils across all schools in England if it wins next Thursday’s general election.
The party said it would fulfil the pledge by recruiting nearly 20,000 extra teachers over five years.
The Conservatives said English schools were rising up international rankings, and pledged an extra £7.1bn by 2022-23 for schools in England.
