Watch out, the academisation process doesn’t take the school breaks. It gathers its own ugly momentum and will overtake you unless you remain vigilant.
Following the public meeting in Northfield on the 10th May, the Headteacher of West Heath Primary School wrote to parents on 11th May informing them that there would be a meeting for parents about academy conversion after the Whitsun break. This post will be updated with further details as we get them. However after the Whitsun break is quite a long way away, particularly if procedures for converting to academy continue during this time. We would encourage parents of West Heath to write to the headteacher and chair of governors as a matter of urgency requesting that all steps towards academy status are put on hold until open and democratic consultation has taken place.
If you are a parent of West Heath Primary please email askparentsfirst@hotmail.co.uk to be put in touch with other concerned parentsat the school.
