This controversial and compelling book exposes the government's city academies project: the ways in which companies and rich individuals have been persuaded to sponsor academies, their real reasons for sponsoring them, the lies that have been told in support of the academies project, and the disastrous effect it will have on Britain's schools. It brings together existing research, by the author and others, and adds new findings, to build up a picture of a deeply flawed idea, which is educationally destructive and inherently corrupt.
Francis Beckett has agreed to discuss his book on the forum.
