Nick Gibb retains his job as schools minister
Nick Gibb, who is responsible for Spag tests and harder Sats, has been reappointed schools minister for the Department for Education (DfE) in May’s reshuffle.
Mr Gibb first joined the DfE in 2010 before being sacked by David Cameron in 2012, and was brought back in July 2014, in the same reshuffle that saw Michael Gove removed as secretary of state.
He was linked Gove’s reforms to bring in a more traditionalist national curriculum but has also been seen as a controversial figure after tougher Sats did not go as “smoothly” as he had hoped.
