Editor’s Letter
Dear Reader,
The new coalition government has invited all schools in England to apply for academy status, including for the first time, primary and special schools. It is also pressing ahead with its ‘free schools’ policy, in which teacher and parent groups can apply to set up their own schools - and run them as academies.
The government is said to be putting a new Academies Bill before Parliament, which will remove the current requirement for a group to consult with the local authority before setting up an academy. It is understood that the bill would also allow primary and secondary schools rated as 'outstanding' by school inspectors, to be fast tracked into free- standing academies by the autumn.
The move has sparked huge debate within the education sector. While many schools are welcoming the move, others fear that state education as we know it will be changed forever.
What do you think? Give me a call on 01622 699140 or email me at
bknowles@datateam.co.uk to offer your opinion on how the various
changes will affect you and your school.
