Britain's schools to be reformed

The new education secretary is spearheading a radical reform program aimed at increasing school autonomy and freedom. The program seeks to establish new academies by the next school year, but faces challenges and opposition. Concerns include the potential for a two-tier system and the financial implications of the reforms. While some schools may benefit from increased control and funding, others may be left behind. The success of these reforms remains uncertain, with scrutiny expected as the bill progresses through Parliament.
