[Lex]

I wonder how much the pupils will benefit from the efficiencies: http://www.stratford-herald.com/8126...emy-trust.html

Maybe others will have a different view/experience, but I've not seen any academies markedly outperform LEA schools, nor have I seen any dramatic improvements once academy status has been granted.

What I have seen though, is the constant watering down of qualifications from school examination boards.
