A different world
Sack bad staff and expel worst pupils, says academy chairman: "The government should make it easier for academies to sack poorly performing teachers and exclude the worst-behaved pupils, according to an academy chairman. Academy staff should also be paid as if they work in businesses, with bonuses linked to academic improvements."

Balls may send in elite teaching teams to turn around failing schools: "Analysis of school results by the Guardian reveals that all but 15 local authorities have at least one school with results below the 30% mark. Birmingham has more than 20 failing schools, as do local authorities with large numbers of grammar schools. There are more than 30 low-performing schools in Kent, which also has the highest number of grammar schools

Balls, "I don't accept there should be a link between poverty and educational attainment. A culture of excusing poor performing pupils on the basis of deprivation will let another generation of pupils fail."
