Biography
Lord Sewell of Sanderstead engaged with learning disability and autism issues through a speech during the Children's Wellbeing and Schools Bill debate in September 2025, where he expressed support for amendments being considered and provided historical context about social mobility and the labour movement. The contribution focused on broader educational policy rather than specifically addressing learning disability or autism provisions within the Bill.

“My Lords, as someone who has not put down an amendment, I will give some collective memory context to what we are debating today. I support most of the amendments. I hope they will not be rejected, but we will see what happens. Yesterday, I listened to the speech made by the Education Secretary, Bridget Phillipson.”
