We are an historic and well performing rural high school in beautiful Weardale in County Durham, now facing the threat of academisation or closure. We will fight as hard as we can to keep our amazing school in LA control #weRdale#NoToAcademies
New: Regional Schools Commissioner opens meeting with anti-forced-academy campaigners by "stating that her mind is made up-despite not having visited either the school or those of trust lined up to run it". New developments in the Waltham Holy Cross saga: https://t.co/140cZHYVcS

We know support staff are the back bone of our schools and they are being cut all over the country. Well said Maggie Browning. @Togetherforedu1#SchoolCuts

Sometimes still hear argument "academies are more accountable". But, as has been stated many times before, the accountability is all upwards,to DfE and trustees. Details here show again what can happen,in terms of seeming failings in outward accountability.https://t.co/ISsnUEnYqm
We are putting together a petition to get as much support as possible for keeping our school maintained. Any tips on successful petitions of a similar nature? #weRdale
Devastated, disgusted and angry that @MaritimeMAT has decided to make our wonderful office staff redundant. And staff in other schools across Greenwich. Brooklands parents are furious at this short-sighted decision. We still fight for Zoe & Yvonne #CutsLeaveScars
