Proposed Academies Legislation
EDM number 135 in 2010-12, proposed by Jon Trickett on 02/06/2010.
That this House notes with serious concern and rejects the Secretary of State for Education's proposals to expand the number of academies by conferring on all school governing bodies the right for their school to become an academy without proper consultation with parents, school staff or the local authority; notes the Secretary of State for Education's recent invitation to all schools deemed outstanding to become academies; and believes these plans will result in further disadvantage to already disadvantaged children and families, and raise fundamental issues such as loss of local democratic accountability, excessive cost, lack of fairness and administrative confusion.
This motion has been signed by a total of 93 MPs, 2 of these signatures have been withdrawn.
