Will the First Minister make a statement on the Welsh Government's position on private schools?

Private schools by their very nature are independent of Welsh Government in terms of finance and governance. However, all independent schools must be registered with Welsh Ministers, and we will continue to work with Estyn to ensure that standards expected of, and achieved by, independent schools remain high.
