Having initially been allocated an inaccessible and not terribly good school my DS has now been offered a very local school which has traditionally been shunned by the middle class locals and is in special measures.
The reception has a good rep tho and a group of us all in the same boat (allocated this school in shakedown, not one of choices, all very local and care about kids education)have made a decision to go for it and try to get involved to help improve the school. The pta is tiny (only about 5 active members) but by no means a closed shop - indeed v.keen on more support.
Any ideas - practical/emotional/theoretical/whatever as to what i and the other new mums can do to help?
Thanks!
