Council wants to sponsor ex E-Act academy (short term?)

From The Chester Chronicle: At a full council meeting on Monday night, executive member for education and children Cllr Mark Stocks said he would write to the Government to say that the council is ‘prepared to provide school improvement support to Winsford (E-Act)Academy in the medium term, until another suitable sponsor is found for the school’.



However the paper said: '(the) offer of support follows a call from local Labour councillors for the Government to allow the academy to return to local authority control.

The school's headteacher Andrew Taylor-Edwards said: 'The 10 academies that will no longer be part of E-Act is not a list of the 10 worst performing E-Act academies.'
