A Department for Education spokesperson said it was committed to all children receiving a first class education.
"We are taking action to ensure all our children are given the first class education they deserve.
This decision signals the beginning of a process that will ensure a first class education is available to young people in the area".
He posted his latest message ("While Obama feeling courageous, why not follow his first class education policy. US's absolute biggest crisis. No read, no write, no jobs").
This is the beginning and not the end of a process which will harness the enthusiasm and commitment of the children, parents, teachers and all the partner organisations to ensure our young people receive a first class education".
All schools must be fully resourced to provide the first class education service we need".
Mr Raza said he wanted to provide a first class education to some of the city's most deprived children.
Under the banner "First class city, first class education", Shanghai set about systematically re-equipping classrooms, upgrading schools and revamping the curriculum in the last decade.
The school's website says it "aims to offer a first class education in socially deprived or disadvantaged areas" and will offer "an academic curriculum with a focus on scientific and critical thinking skills".
We strongly believe every child who does not receive a first class education is in receipt of a second class one and that's not acceptable.
For generations public higher education has been an arena in which students who come from homes of modest means can afford to get a first class education.
