Downhills School was forced to become a Harris chain academy by the Secretary of State for Education. This was opposed by 94% of our community.

I’ll be asking all the candidates whether they support single-sex provision for women. The local Labour team said yes of course.

Remember when Gove told everyone that becoming an academy would give them “freedom from LA bureaucracy”? That top slice is really something!

So, I continue to think debate around this bill can lack a sense of what has actually been going on in academies, even though datasets in particular are starting to build up quite a picture - around eg teacher turnover, QTS, spending -which does seem worthy of much more scrutiny.

"The fact is multi-academy trusts have misused their supposed freedoms, badly, to be honest. We've seen excessive CEO pay go up. Teachers in academies are paid less." - @DanielKebedeNEU at today's education committee. We have a severe recruitment and retention crisis, yet big academy chains are haemorrhaging teachers.

Caribbean & overseas-trained teachers at Harris Federation are balloting because they often wait for many years before their schools will help them achieve pay equality with their UK-trained peers. All educators, including overseas-trained teachers, deserve fair pay for the work they do. Return your ballot paper today and stand up for equality in all Harris schools. 🔗 bit.ly/40Zxmnp

What's the evidential basis for this? No great difference in results between academies and non-academies. Big MATs seem to fare worse on measures such as teacher turnover and levels of qualified teachers. And spend more on management, rather than in classroom.

The key driver of standards has been strong multi academy trusts @bphillipsonMP says in her speech. This is addressing head on some of the criticism of measures in the bill which have led to the suggestion she is stepping away.

National education debates are increasingly presented as false polarised choices: relationships vs. results, equity vs. excellence. In truth, the most impactful teacher leaders show us it’s not either/or—it’s both. This is when we can truly transform the lives of children.👇👇 👇
