Naughty Academies

[sippo]

Panorama from last night. Some bad CEO's. Please remember that these are the exception. To be honest it made me angry as not all academies are bad, and if run in the correct way they are beneficial.

Ooh, wonder if my old school is on there...

Didnt realise this was on so I shall watch it on the iPlayer this evening...

It's very interesting - and to be honest their focus was on certain specific Trusts and people at them, rather than academies as a system. Lack of oversight seems to be the issue - the Public Accounts Committee should put any suspected of dodgy dealing to the metaphorical sword.
