No More Academies
No 'Free' Schools


32 schools open as Academies this week.

Another 180 have applied to become Academies.
This is hardly the 'overwhelming' response Michael Gove bragged about. He is reported to be furious about how slowly the process is working.

There are already 30 meetings around the country that the Anti Academies Alliance is sending speakers to, with many more being organised.

The full list of schools applying to become Academies can be found here



62 groups have applied to become "free" schools
