High Court blocks Romford school's academy conversion

From the BBC: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-london-25752296
and the Evening Standard: http://www.standard.co.uk/news/education/school-wins-court-injunction-to-halt-academy-conversion-plans-9051279.html


Mr Justice Collins granted an injunction preventing the Warren Comprehensive School, in Romford, being moved into academy status.

The Department for Education said it would appeal against the decision.

The Department for Education wants to hand The Warren over to Loxford school.

The Warren said the school was an “unknown quantity” and wants to become a federation with nearby school Robert Clack, with which it has been working for some time.

Chair of governors: Sarah Jane Scrace
