Something has to change and I believe a lot of this reactionary rejection of academies is related to the the fear that the catchment areas might change and not a real concern for improving standards for the young people of Brighton.

2012-03-08 10:34:28 Turning Varndean into an academy is a terrible idea, just ask the staff and students at Falmer. The fact that the goveners can even consider making a decision like this without consultation with its current students and parents is ridculous. PFI was a bad enough decision, don't make another one!
