“But figures published following a Parliamentary question show that concerns have been raised over 13 other chains, barring them from taking on more schools.
This includes the Academies Enterprise Trust – the biggest academy chain, with 77 schools” and David Hoare the new head of OFSTED just happens to be a trustee at AET. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/education/educationnews/10709227/DfE-bars-14-academy-chains-from-taking-on-more-schools.html

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/education/educationnews/11002448/Academy-trustee-announced-as-new-chair-of-Ofsted.html Hmmm Fortuitous Date for Ms Nicky Morgan to make her announcement. What’s wrong with someone who has actually TAUGHT in a classroom ffs! Don’t be ridiculous GovWatch. We don’t want anybody who’s successful, judging teaching performance now do we.
