Right it is time to take REAL action. The sponsors, Council and management of the academy debacle are just taking the absolute p*** out of us all. By ‘us all’ we mean the staff the pupils and the parents.

What right have these unelected idiots got to tell us, our children and our colleagues what is best for us. They have two things in mind and that is power and money, both kind of interlink in that power is money and money is power! At the end of the day it is all of our money that they are playing with, whether it be council tax money or from our wages in central government.

Moira Swann, Douggie and the rest are bullies as has been stated already, but they are just playing for time now. They only have to hold out for a couple more weeks and the hard part for them is over. Whether the funding agreement is signed or not protests though the holidays are not going to have the same effect as they will while schools are still open. It is time to start a real problem for them before it is too late.

Legal action needs to be taken against the council, any offers of help?

Protests have to be arranged quickly. The Friday protest had good speakers and was peaceful, but as the teacher from Lewisham said sometimes it takes a bit more to get noticed and to make a difference! I for one are for peaceful protests but the people forcing this thing through have made that a waste of time by intimidation and bullying so that is the only language the clearly understand. Stand up and be counted!!
