Everything we feared about academisation has come true. Our children are suffering in this bullying culture. The staff can't be happy either. @HandsOffMPS @warwickmansell @how_state @antiacademies @LoseTheBooths @KateGreenSU @HooSBrighton @HandsoffP @cyclingkev @MaryBoustedNEU
In 2019, a top Ofsted official said that the curriculum in England's schools “started to suffer” because of academisation.

"Schools are accountable to many stakeholders beyond parents," so no need for them to be answerable to communities. What a load of nonsense: academies only legally answerable to DfE and unelected trust itself. That's the problem of remoteness.

Oh yes, and DfE also reported to have removed the need for schools to be "answerable" to communities and parents from its governance handbook. Nice one. (Btw this piece references RSC letter to Peacehaven Heights primary, first covered by @EduUncovered): schoolsweek.co.uk/rscs-push-…

When your Multi Academy Trust (MAT) decides to increase the amount of money they take from your school, the Government gives you these options:
❌No choice (you can’t leave)*
❌No voice (you’ve got no vote)**
❌No regulation to rely on.
