Just catching up with yesterday’s @CommonsEd session about the academies section of the Children’s Wellbeing and Schools Bill. Some comments raised an eyebrow or two, so some thoughts to follow.
Branding at its worst - Save our SEN kids - @Autism @NationalAutism @sunflwrlanyards @NEUnion @educationgovuk

Homogenisation of education. @SchoolsWeek Balance please. Biased reporting without balance and impact of MAT’s on many individual children omitted.@NEUnion @DanielKebedeNEU @StopTheMATness

We’ve heard as much as £1.7 million?
Where’s the money Dame Sally? @warwickmansell @tom_belger @bbceducation @UnitedLearning @NEUnion @NEULondon @hollandparkneu

Last accounts of Holland Park School 2021/2022 show a reserve of £3,258,000 with ‘no significant key factors that are likely to affect the Academy’s financial performance or position’. I am now hearing that the school has over spent by an estimated £1,700,000.
Indeed. And how they congratulate each other for their “services to education” @antiacademies

Let us fix that for you* We are delighted that our Chief Executive, Louisa Mitchell, has been awarded an MBE in the New Year Honours List for 2024 in recognition of her “services to children and young people (*unless they went to Holland Park School)

@GillianKeegan @TuringScheme_UK Turning: up to 40k Erasmus: 52k+ So you're really excited to see a reduction in the numbers of students who’ll have the chance to study abroad compared to those who went under Erasmus? What about the 100% of young people who could work in any EU country before Brexit & now?
Chilling stuff Many of us at Holland Park School despair as we witness the systematic erasure of what was unique and special about our school. @UnitedLearning is our Big Brother but that’s how it works. That’s what MATs do @NEUnion @educationgovuk @antiacademies

Straight out of the history books. Totalitarian regimes know they need to control our kids We can only hope ‘Animal Farm’ stays on the curriculum

Ofsted's à la carte inspection of Holland Park was a politically motivated farce designed to facilitate its transfer to United Learning? Everyone involved in that 'operation' should be ashamed of themselves and Ofsted should be restructured from the ground up.🧵👇🏽 @StopTheMATness

In this week's column I argue that our education system is not only failing to prepare children for the massive and rapid shifts - environmental, technological, social - they are likely to face, but is actively de-preparing them. Plus short thread. theguardian.com/commentisfree/…

@StopTheMATness @JonColes01 @UnitedLearning Academies are by their very structure less democratic and accountable than the LA schools they replaced.
