School principal Catherine Birparasing said that Bridget Philipson has no “interest” in knowing the reason for the success of the Michael Community School.
Speak on GB News“The academies have raised standards in England so much that at the tables of the international league like Pisa, we moved from 27 to seventh in mathematics. Or on pearls, we are now considered better in terms of reading, after international plans decreased 15 years ago,” said Catherine Birparasing.
“All these reforms that occurred in the past and half, which makes schools in academies responsible for this success.
“We get 800 visitors annually in Michaella from all over the world, as well as doing many good schools in England because of the amazing work we do, thanks to the freedoms we have.
This is what makes the academy. School leaders have freedoms that allow them to give a dedicated and designed offer to their own community.
“Bridge Philipson will now take these freedoms away from our academies, which mainly makes them in schools.
“So when she claims to say,” I love academies, “but at the same time, freedoms take away from the academies that make them academies, and they mainly turned into schools.
“So this is not true, she does not like academies.
(The meeting) was very disappointing. One of the highest school will not be called to visit. She said that her school visits record was for general knowledge, and you can find it. I cannot find it.
“I don’t know what the school was at all, and I don’t know why you couldn’t say,” I was in these high schools. “I assume that because it did not visit any of the high schools.
“It seemed very proud of the fact that she was in schools that were weak and have no problem going to these schools.
“But I called her three times to come and see Michaella. Why don’t you come and see what we do and learn from what we do?
“My deputy, who was with me, spoke about how last year, we got 52 % of the ninth, and how Iton got 53 %. So we are basically the ETON match.
“No time has been searched and said,” Tell me, what exactly did you do? Were your teaching methods? Was it crying, because you are known to be the most stringent? Is it your values?
“There was absolutely no interest in what we are doing already and know those main ideas that can be presented across schools.
“We talked about the curriculum, and said,” It is a ground, not a roof. “
And I said, “What is the school that does not meet your primary approach and does not provide a basic approach to children? “I couldn’t name that school, because I do not think that the school is present.
“All schools offer a basic approach. So what is the problem trying to fix it?
“What you want is the unification through the school system, which the central government owns. When I call it Marxi, what I mean is that it takes the few freedoms that we have as main teachers and as leaders of schools and return them to the government.
“Because, as Minister of Education, she knows better what my children need more than me, and I disagree with them. We offer the approach designed with regard to our curricula, regarding the way we face teachers, regarding our stick (students’ acceptance numbers).
We have 120 children who come to our school every year. If the adjacent local school is not very good and has 100 children instead of 120, with the changes it makes, it can take 20 of our places and put them with that other school.
“I told her,” What would you say to a desperate mother to enter her child in a good school she used to have 120 places, but you have now achieved 100 places to help in that other school not very good. What do you say to this woman?
“Well, the answer you provided was completely insufficient. There is no other answer. You reduce the number of places in good schools.
The important point is that these ideas are working for everyone. Good discipline in your school works for everyone. The presence of teachers lead learning to work for everyone.
“I understand that different sockets are different, and they are specifically that I am argue. But there are some basics that work.
“The only way in which you can occur in these basics everywhere is to tell people what we should do from the central government, it is by giving the freedoms of school leaders, so they have a sense of responsibility and ownership of their schools, and after that they can hold it accountable for what they offer.
“So, on the other hand, it makes us all completely similar, there is no accountability and there is no sense of responsibility.”
