| Message | While on the whole, the proposals in this bill might suit Republican conventionists, Article 4 does not correspond to our values. It leads to suffocate a private school system that has proven itself, but also to certain abuses. Constance Mouffard Representative of the Republican Conventionists |
| Date | 19:55:07, March 05, 2021 CET | From | Parti Socialiste Démocratique | To | Debating the Educational Reform Act of 4901 |
| Message | This bill will allow our education system to become more successful. Article 4 ensures that the private school system is adequately preparing students to be successful. Thérèse Granger Minster of Education and Culture |
| Date | 21:22:07, March 05, 2021 CET | From | Nouveau Parti Populaire | To | Debating the Educational Reform Act of 4901 |
| Message | Guaranteeing a better education is not a crime, the public schools in Rildanor are considered among the best with international support from different countries thanks to various agreements signed by us and several nations. This bill will not stifle private schools, it only asks them to follow the statutes of the Ministry of Education. Considering that these laws that we are going to ratify are in force in countries outside Seleya, nothing prevents us from ensuring a better education to the Rildanorians. Ponce de Allaire, NPP Whip in the National Convention |
