• Change the misleading Brexit Battle Bus
    The £350 million a week going to the EU statistic on the side of Boris Johnson's Brexit Battle Bus is intentionally misleading the British public on an incredibly important issue. This is clearly intentional as the UK Statistics Authority has already warned the leave campaign that the claim is "potentially misleading". The figure does not include the UK's rebate and does not include any of the cash transfers back into the UK. This is a gross figure and not a net figure as it is being portrayed. If the leave campaign wishes to continue using this statistic they should properly set out what it actually includes and does not include as well as putting it into context. https://fullfact.org/blog/2016/apr/uk-statistics-authority-350-million-eu-membership-fee-potentially-misleading/ It is difficult to see this as anything other than a wilful attempt to mislead the public and this is unacceptable given the gravity of the decision about to be made.

  • Stop our outstanding community schools being forced to become academies
    Halstow, Deansfield and the other Compass Group schools are in the process of becoming a Multi Academy Trust. We were told by the governors that the main reason for conversion to a Multi Academy Trust was to act before we were forced to do so by the government. After significant pressure from teachers, parents and MPs, the government have made a u-turn and confirmed that they will not be forcing outstanding schools to become academies. We were told that conversion would take many months and that we would be kept informed. We now know that the application has been approved by the DfE already and we are a small step away from the irreversible signing of the funding agreement. The government is not going to force our outstanding community schools to academise. Becoming an academy is irreversible. We must halt the academy application, at least until a thorough and transparent investigation of the impact of the proposals on our schools has been undertaken and shared with parents, staff and the wider community.
