Governor rationalisation post conversion gave 'trojan horse' plot cover?

From They Work For You: Responding to Khalid Mahmood's question - why did 8 out of 13 of Park View Academy governors resign after it became an academy? Edward Timpson said: 'Park View Educational Trust has told the Department that there was a need to rationalise the governing body to ensure it could operate more effectively, and in order to comply with the Department's preferred model when other academies joined the trust to form a multi-academy trust.'



He also said: 'The Department's preference is for small and manageable, skill-based strategic governing bodies as these are more effective, and it will normally recommend this when an academy trust is first formed.'
