Return of the Grammar School?: Green Paper Consultation Workshop

16th Nov 2016

The Government’s “Schools that Work for Everyone” Green Paper contains a series of proposals that would significantly reshape the education landscape in the North East.

The plan to lift the ban on grammar schools has attracted most attention, but proposed changes to the role of faith schools, independent schools and universities in state education will also have major implications.

We need your help to shape a North East response to these proposals. SCHOOLS NorthEast is holding a consultation workshop for all school leaders on Wednesday, November 16 to inform our response to the Green Paper.

The event will include:
• An overview of the Green Paper proposals.
• Presentations from representatives of faith schools, selective schools, independent schools and universities on the role they see themselves playing within state education.
• Workshop sessions to discuss the proposals and how SCHOOLS NorthEast should respond.

Date: Wednesday 16 November
Time: 12-4pm
Venue: Quality Hotel Boldon, Boldon Business Park, Witney Way, Boldon, NE35 9PE

There will be no charge for this event and a light lunch will be provided.
