AIBU - for being scared about secondary education

[Nicky4HelCal]

I visited local secondary schools last Autumn, made my choice for Y6 child. A new government seems intent on converting almost every state school into an academy by new legislation - and it will remove the ability of parents and teachers to have any voice in the decision. Am I the only scared parent? Second reading starts tomorrow: See my petition, please sign and share:

What is it that you are scared about?

Could you explain the practical difference that being an academy makes to parents or pupils?

Scared? How does this fear manifest itself?

Hi everyone,

We are going to move this one over to Petitions.

Thanks.
