Statement from Southfield Primary NEU
Here’s some good news. We have managed to stop Southfield Primary School from becoming an academy!
After hearing that our governors wanted to join the Knowledge Schools Trust, through the process of academisation, unhappy NEU members decided to make a stand. We believe in education for all, not just the chosen few. So we rallied together to fight this decision. We fought back! We had a ballot, met with parents and decided we were prepared to strike to save our children’s education. We wanted to stay part of Ealing, it is a supportive borough.
We wouldn’t have achieved this if we hadn’t stuck together and would like to thank Stefan Simms and the NEU for their support. We would also like to thanks Julian Bell Leader of Ealing Council., Yvonne Johnson and Rupa Huq MP for standing with us.
Fantastic news .well done
Thanks Helen’
