Just saw this from Cllr James Barber:


"ED Harris Girls Academy - are planning to change their schools admissions from banding with distance from the school to banding and a lottery. Please do respond to n.francis@harrisdulwichgirls copying me if you agree with this or not and why.

We think making admissions into a lottery will damage the wider local community."


This would effectively, no longer be a local secondary school.

Just like Kingsdale.


Perhaps people will now start to understand that there is a massive downside to schools becoming Academies and therefore entirely independent of each other, with no overseeing body (such as a Local Authority) making sure that local needs are best catered for.

    • He stirs things up and leaves chaos behind, like Johnson and Farage. For some reason people seem to like that even though it leaves society in a worse place.  And our household budgets. There was a time when many of us admired politicians for their integrity.  Most still have that, but some high profile ones including, after Musk, the second most powerful person in the world.....
    • Hi everyone, I’m a Geography student at the University of Manchester and I’m currently writing my dissertation on regeneration and public spaces in Peckham. I’m hoping to speak to some local residents or people who regularly use the area about how they experience changes in Peckham (for example Rye Lane, Peckham Levels, Copeland Park, etc.). It would just be a short, informal interview (around 10-15 minutes) online, and everything would be anonymous. I’m particularly keen to hear from people who’ve lived in or used Peckham for a long time, but all perspectives are welcome. If you’d be happy to take part or would like more information, please comment below or send me a private message. I’d really appreciate your help. Thanks so much, Francesca
