Your input welcomed!

It's good to know that some politicians are keen to hear what the public are thinking.

Here the Lib. Deb. shadow minister for education has set up a working group with a thorough way of gaining your views.

I have no affiliation to any party but feeding ideas into the system is in my view very worth while. If there is a view held by a substantial number of the public being put forward by any party then it will be taken on board by one of the parties.

At present I have little hope for either Labour or Conservative policies so maybe the Liberals?

Here is an invitation from the Lib. Debs. :

Dear Dr Dellow,

Thank you very much for your thoughtful email.

I fully agree that schools and teachers need much greater freedom to innovate and teach.

I will feed your comments into our working group on schools, which has just started looking at all of our education policies. There is more information about this at http://consult.libdems.org.uk/schools/ if you are interested.

Best wishes,

David Laws MP

Well worth expending some energy, in my view. You have until May 30th . . .

Careful, careful. Not all 'leaks' are as they seem.

Nice to see the support for Thorncliffe at Monday's meeting. I'm sure we can all agree that 'satisfactory' is exactly the kind of education we are looking for our children to benefit from. I'm informed that to celebrate their brilliance in becoming 'satisfactory' the staff of Thorncliffe are having a big drink soon. Will that be before or after they've disrupted their 'satisfactory' lessons through industrial action? BRING ON THE ACADEMY - RID THE TOWN OF POOR TEACHERS FOR GOOD!

Are you willing to accepts posts making the case FOR academies - in the 'interests of balance' sort of thing?
