On Leighton Smith re the actions of the Minister/Ministry of Education

For anyone with a mild interest in our soiree with the Ministry of Education. The wonderful Leighton Smith talked to me for 30 mins or so today. My best achievement was not calling them sweary words for their actions towards an 8 year old child and family with a long connection to our Trust – let alone them choosing to deprive 480 students with needs per annum of the expertise our staff can bring. The great Eddie Vedder would not have hesitated … When you withhold good it is as bad as doing intentional harm.

Welcome to share.
