Mr. Gove's Road to Privatisation: Forcing Primary Schools to Become Academies
Mansfield, Melian
FORUM: for promoting 3-19 comprehensive education, v54 n2 p319-322 2012
Not content with the response to his offer to outstanding schools to become academies, Michael Gove's next move has been to force schools to become academies. Resistance from parents and the local community has made no difference. This article explains what happened in Haringey and how undemocratic the whole process has been.
