Gove threatens to close failing academies
Richard Garner
"Sponsors of government academies will be stripped of their powers to run schools if they fail to raise standards, Michael Gove, the Education Secretary, said yesterday.
"Mr Gove made it clear he would not hesitate to replace them with alternative sponsors if necessary. He said the Government had already intervened at one academy - St Michael's and All Angels Church of England in Lambeth, south London - "where the rate of progress at that school was inadequate".
"The school will close this year after being snubbed by parents, and reopen under the management of Ark, an educational charity which already runs a number of academies, in conjunction with the local Church of England diocese."
