YOU can’t close your eyes, click your heels together three times and expect a school like Bicester Community College to magic its way out of special measures.
But the latest verdict from Ofsted that there has not been the required improvement is concerning. While leadership has got better, it surely is not acceptable that the teaching is criticised with poor attitudes to learning.
The main reason a school is there is to educate. Bicester needs to achieve a turnaround in this immediately.
