So...after Morgan's abject display in front of the Select Committee that had MPs looking at each other at times in bemusement, what headlines did it generate given that it was on the subject of extremism in schools:
BBC - Don't shy away from British values in schools - Morgan
Guardian - Education secretary in row with MPs over academy schools inspections
Telegraph - 'Trojan Horse' teachers banned from the classroom
The BBC story doesn't mention the fact that committee members were less than impressed with Morgan's attempts to state exactly how schools were supposed to teach it. The extremism bits can be summed up as "Nothing much has happened yet because we delayed putting someone in charge of Birmingham schools...because it was summer"
edit - they appointed Tomlinson in September when clearly they could have got hold of him months earlier and had his appointment ready to go as soon as the Clarke report came out.
The Guardian has it right in that the exchanges between Graham Stuart and others, and Morgan over inspecting the chains when LAs are already inspected. And the bit where he slapped her down when she claimed that academy trust schools were autonomous was marvellous - having watched previous hearings on academies/free schools, that's something that has come up time after time.
There was another bit where there was raised eyebrows -

Pat Glass asks how many free school applications raised concerns about extremism? Morgan - I can't share that info
Pat Glass: how many wave 6 schools have been withdrawn? Morgan: I'm not able to say that
Why? graham Stuart asks "I don't have the details and I couldn't share that information", Morgan says
Pat Glass and Graham Stuart seem a bit miffed by that (lack of) response by Morgan
They were clearly not impressed.
If I'm not here, then I'll be in the library. Or the other library.
