The Government is planning to publish
the White Paper this Autumn and a new
Education Bill will follow shortly
containing those commitments which
require legislation. The Secretary of
State outlined the key issues in his
speech to the Westminster Academy on
6 September 2010.
The speech sets out plans for a more
autonomous school system led by
professionals which will:
11
• increase the number of great teachers
and leaders in our schools
• give teachers the power to tackle poor
discipline
• create a fairer funding system so that
extra funds follow the poorest pupils
who need the most support
• introduce a simpler, more focused
National Curriculum
• restore faith in our battered
qualifications system.
12
• School autonomy will be supported by
greater accountability through
improved testing and assessment. More
good school places in the next few
years are promised and help will be
given to establish new schools in areas
where there is a growing demand for
school places
Sec. of State 6th September 2010
13
• tackle bureaucracy at source, stripping
out unnecessary obligations placed on
hard-pressed teachers and overworked
governors, simplify the Ofsted
inspection regime and tackle health and
safety rules which inhibit out-ofclassroom learning and undermine
competitive team sports
Sec. of State 6th September 2010
14
• lay out plans to radically improve
the environment in which
disruptive and excluded pupils are
educated … so that …
organisations with a proven track
record in turning young lives
round are given the opportunity to
do more

OUR CHOICE
• We have created a powerful system
together – not through regulation or
designation …but by building on what
works
• It is successful because it is diverse,
creative, professional, supportive,
challenging, and focused on the child not
the institution
20
OUR CHOICE
• Let us continue to build on the strength
and mutual purpose we have developed
together – and give every child in Norfolk
their chance.
