Mayor Slams Government Plans to 'Nationalise' the Schools System
Mayor Dave Hodgson has slammed the Government's plans to force every school in England to become an academy regardless of whether they want to. As leader of the Council in the local authority area with the very best Ofsted-rated schools in the Eastern region, Mayor Dave attacked the proposals revealed in the Education White Paper published by the Government yesterday which will force all schools to become academies by 2022, and which also features the removal of the requirement for schools to include parent governors.
