Well, chased my local MP. they got back to me today. Apparentely, she's not even had the decency to respond yet to her own colleagues - other members of Parliament. His office are going to chase for a response from her and let me know.

How did this woman become an MP????

I just got a standard reply back yesterday from Education Department - haven't heard back from my MP yet.

my MP has replied to several of my emails & letters !!! says she is reading with interest and has forwarded questions & concerns to dept education/truss/gove etc and will let me know as soon as she gets a reply!

No reply from my (Lib Dem) MP yet, I contacted his office and they said they would chase it for me - v busy... lots of correspondence etc etc blah blah. :-(

I got a reply from my mp saying that they would be looking into it and getting back to me with any information they receive
