Save Cavell Campaign

A primary in Norwich forced to become an academy against the will of parents, staff and the local community.

@rob_kelsall Education Bill. Predicated on false premise that academies are a silver bullet to school improvement. Evidence says otherwise!

[rob kelsall @rob_kelsall]

@rob_kelsall Education Bill. There's No right of appeal, No consultation with parents or teachers, No choice for anyone. How is this right?

[rob kelsall @rob_kelsall]

The Education Bill is an affront to democracy and fundementally flawed in so many ways. It's akin to political extremism.

@antiacademies @cyclingkev Nicky Morgan's real definition of "coasting" - any school that's not an academy or free school!

[Save Cavell Campaign @SaveCavell]

Cavell gets a mention. We don't feel vindicated exactly, but certainly extremely sad. Rfs spin jaw-dropping. https://t.co/mQIt4yGQTs

Another twist in the #Hewett saga - @NorfolkCC says it should take ownership of the school's land http://t.co/dgOSrkBApH

[BrigtnCampgn4Eductn @brightonedqt]

Proposed Education & Adoption Bill forces more academies & silences parents teachers & councillors. Pls lobby your MP http://t.co/6hfF6Yxjdx

Sponsored by Rfs Trust, who told Cavell parents they didn't want to become a chain. So much for that. https://t.co/7W6jIg4idw

Another Norfolk high school could become an academy - this time @sprowstonhigh http://t.co/tZ2Uzd8psP

A teaching union asks if the proposed academy sponsor has the capacity to take on @sprowstonhigh http://t.co/tZ2Uzd8psP

If 40% Ofsted inspectors not up to scratch what does that mean for judgements they made? Mass FoI request happening https://t.co/Vq8pqtPipJ

[LocalSchoolsNetwork @localschools_uk]

Ofsted: Sponsored academies twice as likely to fall from RI to Inadequate, compared to maintained: http://t.co/rftnEc6i8s

Estelle Morris: Let’s end this disgraceful charade over academies http://t.co/FKsfyVEt3f

[Parents 4 Education @Par4Ed]

Children and schools routinely treated as disposable chattels - no problem. @labourlewis speaks up and *then* people get upset, apparently.

[Save Cavell Campaign @SaveCavell]

So @NickyMorgan01, are you even more of a "forcing person" than Gove, or a Gove puppet?

[Sarah Williams @swills_17]

Hey @MichaelRosenYes 46% of sponsored acads 'inadequate' or 'require improvement' (12%&34%). It's NOT about the children. :(

[OurSchoolsLBWF @OurSchoolsLBWF]

@educationgovuk Transformed into what? Failing academies? Where's the evidence that forced academisation is good for pupils?

[Howard Stevenson @hstevenson10]

So the rules change again. Myth of 'parental choice' exposed by State's drive to privatise. Democracy squeezed out. @BBCr4today

[Kevin Courtney @cyclingkev]

Evidence comparing community schools & academies doesn't support acads.
This problem disappears if you remove all community schools. Magic.
