Only three Cornish schools apply to become academies

Graham Smith | 19:47 UK time, Thursday, 29 July 2010

It looks as if, so far, only three schools have applied to opt out of Cornwall Council control and become academies. None is a secondary school.

The schools which want to go it alone are Sandy Hill Community Primary, St Austell, St Buryan Primary near Penzance and Trenance Infant School, Newquay.

The full Department for Education .

What I find interesting about this very short list is why it is so different to the list of those which expressed an interest (27 in Cornwall.) Could it be that having looked at the implications, two dozen Cornish schools have had second thoughts?
