Review : The council's role with maintained, academy and free schools

Minutes:

10.1  The chair reported that he would like to invite academies to attend and give evidence on their exclusion policies. The committee agrees and further suggested looking at admissions policies and if they intended to deviate from the teachers’ pay scale. Members then discussed which academies to invite and suggested Bacon’s College, Harris Academy , Kingsdale School, City of London Academy, The Charter School, Globe Academy (ARK) and Walworth Academy (ARK) and agreed that it would be better to invite the chief executive of the Academy chain, particularly when more than one school operates in Southwark .
